Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 59.35%

This 1978 Port Ellen 24-year-old Islay single malt whisky was the second Port Ellen to be appear as part of Diageo's annual Special Releases, and was one of the highlights of the 2002 outturn.

One of the very greatest of the Port Ellen Special Releases, the Second Release 24-year-old Port Ellen 1978 was bottled in 2002 at its natural cask strength of 59.35% and has both the fierce austerity and the extraordinary depth of flavour so beloved by fans of these legendary Port Ellen official bottlings. This one is Tim F's favourite ever official Port Ellen.
