Queen’s visit rarity, 555-bottle brine silk for lost distillery fans.
A rare release from the closed Islay distillery, Port Ellen 1980 is one of eight carefully curated whiskies in the third instalment of the Prima & Ultima series. Filled in the year the Queen visited the Port Ellen maltings, this comes from the two very last casks of 1980 which lived all their days on Islay. One Refill American Oak Hogshead, and one ex-Sherry European Oak Butt.
