Port Ellen 37 Years Old - 16th release 1978 70cl

Port Ellen 37 Year Old 16th Release 1978 – The oldest expression from the legendary distillery

The Port Ellen 37 Year Old, 16th Release, distilled in 1978, is one of the most extreme and extraordinary expressions in the closed Islay distillery's release series. Thirty-seven years of slow cask evolution represents the outer limit of maturation available from this mythical distillery, and the result is a whisky of a sensory dimension unique in the world of Scotch whisky.

In the glass, the Port Ellen 37 Year Old reveals the distillery's most evolved and complex character: peat softened by decades yet still present, intense dried fruit, aged leather, wax, richly mature oak spice and a base of slate and sea salt that is utterly unmistakable. On the palate, the texture is ethereal, with an elegance that exceeds expectation. The finish is eternal.
