PORT ELLEN 1979 Douglas Laing 25 Year Old Sherry Cask #1344

Port Ellen 1979 represents a rare window into one of Islay's most storied closed distilleries. This Douglas Laing release, aged 25 years in sherry cask #1344, captures the distillery's signature maritime character—briny, peaty, and deeply complex—mellowed by decades in wood. Expect rich dried fruit and dark chocolate notes layered beneath the smoke, with a warming, lingering finish that speaks to both the spirit's provenance and the careful stewardship of independent bottler Douglas Laing. A collector's dram and a testament to Port Ellen's enduring legacy.
