Port Ellen 1982 - William & Kate Royal Wedding - 2011 Release - Single Cask 2290
Port Ellen 1982 - 2011. Bottled to celebrate the Royal Wedding of Prince William & Catherine Middleton on the 29th April 2011. Bottled exclusively for The Whisky Exchange. Cask number 2290. One of 213 bottles matured in a Sherry Hogshead. 70cl. 53.0%.
One of the great lost distilleries on Islay, Port Ellen was little-known in its lifetime with only a handful of official bottlings produced before the distillery closed in 1983 as part of Diageo forerunner Scottish Malt Distilleries’ swingeing cuts in response to the great whisky lake of the 1970s and 1980s.
Later rediscovered by malt fans thanks to fine independent bottlings from the likes of Gordon & MacPhail, Cadenhead’s and Signatory Vintage, Port Ellen’s reputation mushroomed through the 1990s and 2000s as sensational Rare Malts bottlings were followed by a string of legendary Diageo Special Releases and dozens of superb single cask bottlings from Douglas Laing.
In 2017 the whisky world was stunned when Diageo announced that work was taking place to bring Port Ellen distillery back from the dead - the new Port Ellen distillery finally recommenced production in March 2024.
