To say bottlings of Port Ellen are sought after is just a bit of an understatement. While the distillery remains silent, and has done since 1983, releases like this rare Gordon & MacPahil Connoisseurs Choice bottling give us a window into the past and a chance to sample the wonders of their craft. It was distilled at the Port Ellen distillery on Islay in 1981 and eventually bottled in 2000.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
