The Port Ellen Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Annual Release Complete Collection comprises the esteemed first through seventeenth editions from this iconic distillery, established in 1825. Renowned for its peated single malts, Port Ellen is situated on the rugged isle of Islay, Scotland, where its whiskies embody profound smoky and maritime characteristics reflective of the unique terroir. The distillery halted production in 1983, rendering its expressions highly coveted among connoisseurs. Crafted for Diageo's Special Releases from 2001 to 2017, this collection reveals the distillery's character through distinct vintages and ages.
