CLOSED DISTILLERY
Single Malt Scotch Whisky from Port Ellen Distillery - limitierte Abfüllung von 403 Flaschen weltweit - Cask Strength 56.5% - natürlich Farbe - ohne Kühlfiltration - abgefüllt durch den Independent Bottler Hunter Laing in Glasgow, Schottland für ihre Eidolon Serie.Eidolon - Port Ellen 40 Year Old - the second release in a rare and limited edition series.
Distilled in 1982 shortly before the legendary Islay distillery was to close, only 403 bottles of the limited-edition Port Ellen Islay Single Malt Whisky are available. The Eidolon series is presented at a natural cask strength of 56.5% ABV and without artificial colouring or chill-filtration. The series has been named 'Eidolon', which in ancient Greek literature refers to a recollection of something memorable from history. The Eidolon casks were carefully set aside some years ago for additional ageing and we now believe they have reached the peak of their complexity and character.Tasting NotesNose: Deep amber in colour, the nose opens with immediate sherry cask influence – rich red fruit, cocoa, cherry, pecan, caramel and sweet pipe tobacco.Palate: On the palate it is intense and expressive, with dark chocolate, espresso, citrus, polished wood, more fragrant tobacco and an all-encompassing Islay peat smoke. With time in the glass and a few drops of water added more herbal notes and a sea-breeze/oyster freshness are apparent.Finish: The finish is never-ending, with old fishing nets, tar, honey, black tea and chocolate almonds lingering on. Truly a wonderful example of the legendary Port Ellen Distillery’s output.

Single Malt Scotch Whisky from Port Ellen Distillery - distilled 1982 - Aged 40 Years - Cask Strength 60.2% - bottled by the independent bottler Hunter Laing, Glasgow, Scotland.Introducing Eidolon - Port Ellen 40 Year Old - the final release in Hunter Laing's extremely rare and limited edition series.
This new Port Ellen Islay Single Malt was distilled in 1982, shortly before the legendary Islay distillery was to close, and there are only 406 bottles available to purchase, making it strictly limited. As with all of our rarest independent bottlings, the Eidolon series is presented at a natural cask strength of 60.2% ABV and without artificial colouring or chill-filtration.
The series has been named 'Eidolon', which in ancient Greek literature refers to a recollection of something memorable from history. The Eidolon series was launched in anticipation of the closed Port Ellen distillery being ‘brought back to life’ as distillery owners Diageo plan to resume production in the near future. The Eidolon casks were carefully set aside some years ago for additional ageing and we now believe they have reached the peak of their complexity and character.
Port Ellen 1983 / 33 Years / Authors' Series

CLOSED DISTILLERY Single Malt Scotch Whisky from Port Ellen Distillery - limitierte Single Cask Abfüllung von 142 Flaschen weltweit - Cask Strength 55.9% - natürlich Farbe - ohne Kühlfiltration - abgefüllt durch den Independent Bottler Hunter Laing in Glasgow, Schottland für ihre Authors' Series.Review by Whiskyfun.com:The author on the label is the English poet Lord Tennyson, who’s not very famous in France (to say the least). Colour: gold. Nose: it’s now well known that Port Ellen ages particularly well, and particularly slowly. In this case, it’s got as many ashes and bits of tarry rubber as in the earliest days, I’m sure. For example, it’s straighter than the latest official special releases, and this mentholy/camphory smoke as well as the tarry ropes and all the hessian just do wonders. Love this nose – and the sherry stayed right in its place. So, not very noticeable. With water: fabulous, smoked tweed jacket and Islay mud. Rolls and rolls of hessian. Mouth (neat): emblematic arrival, massive, very punchy, wonderfully citrusy, and superbly salty/smoky. Serious, this could be 15 years of age. Magnificent pink grapefruits with some white pepper, some ashes, and a wonderful ultra-dry sootiness, the whole getting tarrier and more almondy by the second. A big Port Ellen, rather for your hipflask than for the club. I’m finding some echoes of the Rare Malts, if that rings a bell. With water: as often, the drying ashes come out more. Some tangerines too. Finish: very long, superb, on, well, just everything that’s needed in an old PE that’s not that old. Citrus, smoke, salt, tar… A lot of tar. Comments: and so I’ve checked good old Wikipedia, and apparently, Tennyson wrote "My strength is as the strength of ten, because my heart is pure". That fits this little PE just right, very well done Hunter Laing! SGP:567 - 94 points.
