A little difficult without water. With water: the tar comes out a little, a little paraffin, fusel oil, butter, smoked tea. Classic austerity. Mouth (neat): sweeter but still a little aggressive. Candied oranges, dried pears, sugared lemon juice… With water: nice farmy notes, dried apples and pears. Unusual notes of figs. Finish: long, rather sweet, peaty… Not the very best Annual Release I think bit still an excellent peaty Islayer. 90 points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePRODUCT SUMMARY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 421px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eDistillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePort Ellen\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eClassification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSingle Malt Whisky\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e# Released bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e12000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e1978\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e24\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBottler\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOfficial Bottling\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eBottling Date\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2002\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eABV\/ Volume\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e59.35%\/ 70cl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eRating\/SGP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e90\/-\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eCask Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e-\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"430\" height=\"242\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lICQKWS0Zjo\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Port Ellen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":220014575622,"sku":"PORT ELLEN 2ND AR 70 I","price":8888.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1402\/9187\/products\/Port_Ellen_2nd_Release.jpg?v=1752629462"},{"product_id":"port-ellen-3rd-annual-release-1979-24-years-old-2003","title":"Port Ellen 3rd Release 24 Year Old Distilled in 1979 Bottled in 2003 Natural Cask Strength ABV 57.3% Vol 70cl \/ 700ml (With Box)","description":"\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe eighth release sold out in a few days and the first edition now commands about a grand if you can find it, so this is a bargain.

Nose: this one is much more vegetal, grassy, lemony and malty, maybe not really violent but it hasn’t got the ‘polished’ side of this year’s release. Big notes of lamp oil, fresh putty, walnut skins and marzipan. Also hints of antiseptic and nail polish. I like the ‘7’ really better as far as the nose is concerned. Mouth: much better now, even if a tad less complex than the ‘7’. Quite similar in fact, maybe a tad waxier and more almondy and peppery. Also a bit drying – it seems that there’s more oak here. Gets a little too hot, let’s see what happens with water (while the nose got even grassier): it’s almost plain seawater now! Smoked seawater, amazing... Finish: long ‘of course’ but rather rough, salty and grassy. Well, this is great whisky but I liked the ‘7’ better.

Nose: an extremely farmy and tarry start, with quite some high-end rubber (as Davin would say). Gets then very grassy, with also notes of pumpkin soup, celery, chervil… Very assertive, going on with wet dog and wet hay and finally hints of aniseed, camphor and fuel oil. I like this nose a lot. Mouth: really punchy and powerful, with lots of salt and lots of smoked ‘stuff’ as well as a little mint. Lots of smoked tea, liquorice, notes of kippers. A rather straightforward palate without the notes of burnt rubber that can appear in some Port Ellens. With water, the nose gets even farmier, the water making the phenols go out. Heavy notes of cow barn. The palate gets fruitier, on dried pears and earl grey tea… Really excellent. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e92 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePRODUCT SUMMARY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 421px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eDistillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePort Ellen\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eClassification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSingle Malt Whisky\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e# Released bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e5280\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e1979\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e25\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBottler\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOfficial Bottling\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eBottling Date\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003e2005\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eABV\/ Volume\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e57.4%\/ 70cl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eRating\/SGP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e92\/-\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eCask Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e-\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"430\" height=\"242\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lICQKWS0Zjo\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Port Ellen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":310779478022,"sku":"PORT ELLEN 5TH AR 70 I","price":7888.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1402\/9187\/products\/Port_Ellen_5th_Release.jpg?v=1752629459"},{"product_id":"port-ellen-10th-annual-release-1978-31-years-old-2010","title":"Port Ellen 10th Release 31 Year Old Distilled in 1978 Bottled in 2010 Natural Cask Strength Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky ABV 54.6% Vol 70cl \/ 700ml (With Box)","description":"\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsually an immediate sell-out, the 10th release of OB Port Ellen is from 1978 and has been bottled at 31 years old.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTASTING NOTES (by Whiskyfun.com)\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly the half of the usual batch size this year, uh! I loved the 9th release from last year as much as the 1st from 2001 (WF93) but the 21yo ‘Port Ellen Maltings’ still rules my list of official PEs (WF94). Colour: straw. Nose: oh this is restrained and elegant! Exactly the opposite of some exuberant peat monsters, this is very subtle, on old papers, almond milk, shellfish, old slightly musty spice mix, soot and quite a lot of cut apples. I think I’ll try to compare this one with the 22yo 1978 Rare Malts one day, I seem to remember that one was a true monster- exactly the opposite of this new 1978.\u003cbr\u003eWith water: the beast still roars! Water woke up a tarry peatiness that, precisely, reminds me of the Rare Malt (that I used to call ‘the Pirelli whisky’ – nothing to do with the naked girls on the calendars). Mouth (neat): ah yes, yes yes! More vibrant than the nose and ueber-lemony, superbly zingy, ‘chiselled’ and kippery. Greatest notes of olive oil and marzipan in the background. Gets then ashier and saltier at the same time. I don’t think we used to know how PE would behave after 30 years of age, I think we have the answer. With water: perfection made whisky. Please call the anti-maltoporn brigade. Finish: very long. Superb salty aftertaste and a contrasting spice blast (carvi, pepper, cloves, bitter almonds). Comments: wow. To think that we’ll have all these new old Port Ellens to try in the coming years! And if PE was the peaty Islayer that aged best? Shall we soon see the revenge of the old lady on her thundering neighbours?

Also almonds and a little camphor, not unlike what happens with some of the most legendary of its neighbours when they get very old. Superb, obviously. Just hints of ‘clean’ manure. Mouth (neat): the most austere of them all but also the most elegant. Very dry, grassy and smoky attack, then quite some lemon, many mineral notes ‘cool climate style’ (to speak like a wino) and many phenolic\/resinous notes. Splendid austerity. With water: gets ultra-dry, all on smoke and ashes. Finish: something that reminds me of the revered Rare Malts (20 and 22yo), minus the brutality.

The peatiness is starting to fade away, which was already happening with the 10th release, but I think that brought a bigger complexity to the whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith water: pure brine and seawater, which was a little unexpected. We’re so close to the Moon (Import) now, it’s as if water took 15 years away. Funny and brilliant. Maybe a little sootier, in fact. Mouth (neat): yahh! Frankly, it’s still a beast on the palate, and the peat is much more vivid than on the nose. Greatly acrid, very ashy, kippery (yeah I know) and lemony, with in the background, fabulous notes of marzipan, olive oil, pine sap and putty. What strikes me is the way it becomes more citrusy after that, not just on lemon but also on tangerines and even kumquats and bergamots. With water: like smoking the best early Cohibas. Quite ashy indeed – and there are many other flavours. Finish: long, with a fab sweet and sour and ashy profile that, again, usually rather belongs to the wine world in my opinion. Great briny\/almondy aftertaste, rather smooth. Comments: fab and look, we don’t do halves so we shall keep the same score as last year, even if I think we might well be a wee tad lower in fact. Just a iny-wee tad... (last year's was maybe a minuscule notch more complex.) I also liked the fruitiness that starts to come out – taking the place of peat? \u003cstrong\u003eSGP:467 - 95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Colour: dark straw. Nose: ah, this is something completely different. Sweeter and much rubberier right at the start, with some typical notes of tyres, tar, pepper… Some fruity notes emerge, like apple, green pear, green plum. Yet, it’s finally even more austere than the Ardbeg, and perhaps a little less satisfying. Port Ellen 22yo 1979\/2001 ‘Annual Release’ (56.2%, OB, first release)\u003cbr\u003eIt then gets quite vegetal (wet fern, moss) and even a little mineral (wet chalk). A great one, perhaps just slightly less stunning than the new Ardbeg. Mouth: again, it’s crispier and fruitier at the same time, but still very austere. More tar, more rubber, and much, much more pepper. Some sweetness but it comes from the alcohol. It then grows more and more powerful and drier… What a body! The pepper grows even stronger after a few minutes… And the sweetness vanishes, leaving just a mixture of smoke, pepper and lemon zest that might displease the lovers of round and smooth whiskies – but not the peat heads, obviously. The finish is very long but again, very austere.

We’ll oppose it to the 3rd Annual Release because it’s the one we never gotten around to write decent tasting notes about, and to a new Signatory because it’s, err, new. Colour: pale gold. Nose: it seems that this one is a rather complex version, which does not start only on big whiffs of burning tyres and lemons but also on soaked grains, porridge and wet ropes. The peat smoke is big as expected but it’s melted into the rest. Mullein flowers, crystallised lemons, lemon honey, vanilla crème, raw wool, clams, spearmint. It gets then a little more austere but never ‘brutal’. A civilised Port Ellen? Palate: well, yes, in a certain way. Quite interestingly, this one reminds me more of an old Ardbeg than of a Port Ellen on the palate. Very nervous and very ‘wide’, with notes of tangerines, Chinese anise, bubblegum (hints), smoked tea, gentian spirit (hello Vienna?), crab, green Chartreuse and even Jägermeister, liquorice roots... Gets almost restless now, concentrated, big, bitterer and bitterer (more herbs liqueurs)... What a presence! Finish: long, more on marzipan now, green walnuts, liquorice, kippers, sea water (remember?) Well well well, we had thought this one would be a very nice and gentle whisky when nosing it first but at the finish it got quite a monster. A vampire? Great whisky anyway – nothing really new under the sun. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSGP:288 \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e(\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.whiskyfun.com\/SGP.html\"\u003ewazzat?\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- 92 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePRODUCT SUMMARY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 421px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eDistillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePort Ellen\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eClassification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSingle Malt Whisky\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e# Released bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e5274\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e1979\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e28\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBottler\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOfficial Bottling\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eBottling Date\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2007\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eABV\/ Volume\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e53.8%\/ 70cl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eRating\/SGP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e92\/288\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eCask Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e-\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"430\" height=\"242\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lICQKWS0Zjo\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Port Ellen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33572393094,"sku":"PORT ELLEN 7TH AR 70 I","price":7888.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1402\/9187\/products\/IMG_1517_13.jpg?v=1752629247"},{"product_id":"port-ellen-1978-34-years-old-12th-annual-release-2013","title":"Port Ellen 13th Annual Release 34 Year Old Distilled in 1978 Bottled in 2013 Natural Cask Strength Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky ABV 55% Vol 70cl \/ 700ml (With Box)","description":"\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wrapper product-info\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Product\" itemscope=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details-content-item active\" id=\"prodDesc\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe eagerly-anticipated 13th release from cult closed distillery Port Ellen.

Nose: we aren't far from the 1977, but this one's more polished, a notch rounder, a tad gentler despite the higher strength. Surprisingly gentle, in fact, even a little simple, but that lasts only for one minute, and then it takes off like an albatross, slowly and surely. Brine, lemon juice, engine oil, liquid tar, wet wool, paraffin, orange wine, a drop of balsamic vinegar, moss and mushrooms, maybe fresh parsley. After five minutes, there are more and more notes of mead and it's even a little acetic, in a good way. No straight vinegar! Also cold smoke (cigar). With water: ha! Used fireworks, humus, burnt wood (pine, beech) and green tobacco. The smoke from Kretek cigarettes (tobacco and cloves, that's what you can smell in just any Indonesian street). This one makes you travel. Mouth (neat): oh but it's not an old, quiet one! Starts 'nervous', as lemony as a youngster, even a notch fizzy, with peppers and bitter herbs just below the surface. Some unexpected notes of cider and apple peel, lemon zests, playful green peppercorns, citrons... Did they throw a small cask of Rosebank into the vatting? With water: it's the Ziegfeld Follies in a swimming pool, this time water works magnificently. Now, what's interesting is that it's rather brown sugar and even sweet barley that come out, which makes it unexpectedly rounder and gentler. Finish: long, kind of smooth, with some sort of smoked cider as well as smoked and salted fish. Comments: maybe not as 'immediate and unquestionable' as earlier releases, and certainly not as 'bigly tarry' as middle-aged PEs such as the Rare Malts and such, but it's another magnificent old PE for sure. It's just got a little less Port-Ellenness, if I may. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"textenormalgras\"\u003eSGP:356 - 93 points.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePRODUCT SUMMARY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 421px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eDistillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePort Ellen\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eClassification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSingle Malt Whisky\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e# Released bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e2958\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e1978\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e34\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBottler\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOfficial Bottling\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eBottling Date\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2013\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eABV\/ Volume\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e55.0%\/ 70cl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eRating\/SGP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e93\/356\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eCask Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e-\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"430\" height=\"242\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lICQKWS0Zjo\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Port Ellen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33573490246,"sku":"PORT ELLEN 13TH AR 70 I","price":11888.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1402\/9187\/products\/IMG_0501_39.jpg?v=1752629245"},{"product_id":"port-ellen-1981-feis-ile-2008","title":"Port Ellen Distillery Date Filled 1981 - Feis Ile 2008 Natural Cask Strength Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky ABV 54.7% Vol 70cl \/ 700ml","description":"\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wrapper product-info\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Product\" itemscope=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details-content-item active\" id=\"prodDesc\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eBottled especially for the 2008 Islay Music and Whisky Festival (Feis Ile).

Sold for a very fair price (£99.something) but in very limited quantities, it provoked quite a queue when it was sold at Caol Ila Distillery on the morning of may 26th and of course a few vampires were quick to put it on eBay, where it was soon to fetch something like £700. Better than petrol. There's even 'a gentleman' in Bowmore who's currently asking for £800+ a bottle. Ah, the charming Ileachs, soooo romantic, aren't they! Colour: pale gold. Nose: this is different. More polished, rounder at first nosing, even if the notes of smoked fish are well here. Vanilla custard. Develops on unusual floral notes (dandelions, flower nectar), then whiffs of brown coal, pu-erh tea, matches, hints of dry white wine again, a little more liquorice… More notes of kippers as well, maybe even sardines. Hints of fresh almonds and gingerbread. This one gets more and more complex, and rather wilder too over time. Very interesting development from ‘almost smoothness’ to ‘wild coastal peatiness’. Mouth: once again, it starts quite smoothly (well, considering it’s Port Ellen), on orange marmalade and lapsang souchong (smoked tea), but it really becomes a hard-hitter after that, with quite a lot of peat, lemon peel (and squash), orange peel, coriander, brown sugar again… The grassiness gets bigger too (interesting notes of sorrel mingling with the lemon) but there are also quite some ‘candied’ notes (crème brûlée, caramel custard, even rum.) A big dram that started smoothly but grows wilder and wilder. Tricky, in a certain way. Finish: very long, but quite interestingly, it sort of softens (hints of pineapple drops and honey – honey in Port Ellen!) whilst keeping its beautiful profile. Comments: another punchy but most approachable Port Ellen. Certainly more complex and more multifaceted than the ‘average’ Port Ellen (albeit less austere\/sharpish), provided you give it a little time. If you’ve got one bottle of this, please don’t bull, open it, it’s really worth it. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSGP:637 - 91 points.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePRODUCT SUMMARY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 421px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eDistillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePort Ellen\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eClassification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSingle Malt Whisky\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBottle No.\/ Released\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e61\/220\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e1981\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBottler\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOfficial Bottling\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eBottling Date\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2008\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eABV\/ Volume\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e54.7%\/ 70cl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eRating\/SGP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e91\/637\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eCask Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267px; text-align: center;\"\u003e1301\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"430\" height=\"242\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lICQKWS0Zjo\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Port Ellen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33574043974,"sku":"PORT ELLEN 1981 70 I","price":99999.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1402\/9187\/products\/Port-Ellen-1981-Feis-Ile-2008.jpg?v=1752629243"},{"product_id":"port-ellen-1969-15-years-gordon-macphail-connoisseurs-choice","title":"Port Ellen Distillery 15 Year Old Distilled 1969 Gordon \u0026 MacPhail Connoisseurs Choice Islay Pure Malt Scotch Whisky ABV 40% Vol 75cl \/ 750ml","description":"\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wrapper product-info\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Product\" itemscope=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details-content-item active\" id=\"prodDesc\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA very old Connoisseurs Choice 1969 Port Ellen bottled in the mid-1980s.

Nose: extremely delicate at first nosing, with some superb notes of marzipan and whiffs of camphor and apple skins. Very subtle mix of peat smoke and grapefruit juice. A little tary as usually but no brand new tyre this time. Really excellent, not much oomph but still a beautiful presence. Some hay. Gets peatier and peatier after a few minutes, and also quite waxy. Hints of diesel oil. Mouth: very sweet and very peaty attack, with a great body and a perfect mouth feel. Some liquorice, bitter oranges – not fabulously complex in fact but very compact and satisfying. Rather long finish with a little eucalyptus and some marzipan again.

Colour: gold. Nose: yeah well, as I said, it’s close to the Alambic, with maybe more roundness (no it’s no rounded whisky) and a slightly wider profile. So brine and tar up and rather less flints and paraffin. A little more fresh walnuts and apple peelings as well. Diesel oil, a little vanilla from the wood that I wouldn’t have noticed without having first tried the very naked DL. With water: nearly perfect. Once again, no complex whisky but who needs more than brine, tarry smoke, lemon and almonds\/putty in perfect synch? Mouth (neat): that’s where this one scores better when undiluted, it’s all a massive, extremely salty and hugely tarry and liquoricy spirit. Wheelbarrows of salted liquorice and when I write salted, that’s an understatement. With water: purfektion. Fab peat – tar – salt – lemon – combo, with crates and crates of kippers behind all that. Finish: long, on exactly the same notes. A feeling of fullness. Comments: I can’t see why I would score this baby differently this time.

Nose: as expected, this older baby is less in your face and, to be honest, much more complex and subtle. I’m glad we had the monsters before, that stresses even more to which extend the new one is complex. The first aromas are pretty similar (tar and such) but many tinier notes do develop over time, especially all what comes from ageing coastal peat, that is to say camphor, putty, plasticine, almonds, old coal stove, shellfish (our beloved whelks), old motor oil, waxed papers, ink, chimney ashes, seaweed… No need to say that this nose is brilliant. With water: same. It was already complex and so it remains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMouth: I’d say the difference with the younger ones isn’t as big as on the nose, it’s still a potent, almost pungent whisky, with absolutely no signs of fatigue although again, it’s rather more complex. So once again, it’s the sappy\/resinous part that grew bigger, with more camphor again, cough syrup, wax… It’s also very lemony and briny again, this should go extremely well with (the most expensive) oysters. With water: sadly, it’s great. I wrote sadly because it’s so expensive – as Pete and Jack said, many good friends can’t afford to show their good taste anymore. Anyway, there are more tropical fruits than in any earlier expressions, we’re starting to experience what can be found in old Laphroaigs, for example. Or in last year’s release, by the way. Superb! Finish: long, complex, chiselled, almondy, liquoricy, tarry, salty and, again, a little tropical. Lemons and grapefruits. Comments: mixed feelings, because of the prices. Just like last year’s release, it’s fabulous whisky, no doubt whatsoever, but it’s very sad that, as I said, some friends who really know their whisky won’t be able to buy it anymore. The worst problem is that, contrarily to what some seem to believe, there aren’t that many whiskies in this style anymore that are both as superb AND significantly cheaper in my opinion. Unless you’re good at self-persuasion… Or manage to unearth some great oldies here and there.

Colour: dark straw. Nose: ah, this is something completely different. Sweeter and much rubberier right at the start, with some typical notes of tyres, tar, pepper… Some fruity notes emerge, like apple, green pear, green plum. Yet, it’s finally even more austere than the Ardbeg, and perhaps a little less satisfying. Port Ellen 22yo 1979\/2001 ‘Annual Release’ (56.2%, OB, first release)\u003cbr\u003eIt then gets quite vegetal (wet fern, moss) and even a little mineral (wet chalk). A great one, perhaps just slightly less stunning than the new Ardbeg. Mouth: again, it’s crispier and fruitier at the same time, but still very austere. More tar, more rubber, and much, much more pepper. Some sweetness but it comes from the alcohol. It then grows more and more powerful and drier… What a body! The pepper grows even stronger after a few minutes… And the sweetness vanishes, leaving just a mixture of smoke, pepper and lemon zest that might displease the lovers of round and smooth whiskies – but not the peat heads, obviously. The finish is very long but again, very austere.

A stunning bottle of Islay magic (and if it’s really Pinkie who did this, well we’ll call him Pinkie The Great from now on.) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"textenormalgras\"\u003eSGP:458 - 94 points.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"details-content-item active\" itemprop=\"description\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePRODUCT SUMMARY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 419.667px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eDistillery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267.667px; text-align: center;\"\u003eLagavulin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22.6667px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22.6667px; width: 152px;\"\u003eClassification\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22.6667px; width: 267.667px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSingle Malt Whisky\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eBottle No.\/Released\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267.667px; text-align: center;\"\u003e-\/3500\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267.667px; text-align: center;\"\u003e1995\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAge\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267.667px; text-align: center;\"\u003e-\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBottler\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267.667px; text-align: center;\"\u003eOfficial Bottling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eBottling Date\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267.667px; text-align: center;\"\u003e2014\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eABV\/ Volume\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267.667px; text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e54.7%\/ 70cl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eRating\/SGP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267.667px; text-align: center;\"\u003e94\/458\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 22px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 152px;\"\u003eCask Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"height: 22px; width: 267.667px; text-align: center;\"\u003e-\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"430\" height=\"242\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vqO_x6fyKDU\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lagavulin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":256388169734,"sku":"LAGAVULIN 1995 75 I","price":5383.99,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1402\/9187\/products\/LAGAVULIN_1995_-_Feis_Isle_2014_Cask_3311-1_f45579ac-0814-4a85-a154-95506db3bf88.jpg?v=1752628840"},{"product_id":"port-ellen-1982-35-years-douglas-laing-xop-70th-anniversary","title":"Port Ellen 1982 35 Year Old Douglas Laing XOP Platinum \/ 70th Anniversary Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky ABV 54.4% Vol 70cl \/ 700ml","description":"\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDESCRIPTION\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePort Ellen 1982 35 years Douglas Laing XOP \/ 70th Anniversary.

The premium Blue Label brand was introduced in 1992, and is composed using malt whisky from some of the most sought after distilleries in Diageo’s extensive portfolio.
