An astonishing bottling from Douglas Laing's Xtra Old Particular range - this is a well-sherried 35 year old single malt produced at Islay's long-closed Port Ellen distillery! It was aged in a single sherry hogshead from march 1983 to March 2019, then bottled at cask strength with an outturn of only 128 bottles. The whiskies from Port Ellen have become hugely sought-after, and this one is sure to turn a few heads...
The nose shows a wonderfully smoky character alongside burnt brown sugar and cured meats.
The palate is full of mocha/cocoa, BBQ smoke and stewed dark fruits.
The finish goes on and on with rich spices, peat and treacle.
