Port Ellen is the rarest of Islay Single Malts because the property was closed in the 1980s. The current owner, Diageo, is gradually releasing the remaining stocks annually (this being the fourth) in which only about 5500 bottles are made. Each bottle is individually numbered. Don’t miss this increasingly rare opportunity to sample this limited libation. |
