Port Ellen (silent) Signatory Vintage Single Malt Scotch Whisky 21 Year Old · 1976 Vintage

Colour

Deep mahogany amber with a burnished copper glow.

Nose

Sea-salt and iodine mingle with roaring Islay peat smoke, revealing a sherry-sweet core. Dried fig and raisin drift with cherry and dark chocolate, all wrapped in polished oak and a kiss of vanilla. Maritime, cask-strength perfume that begs the first sip.

Palate

Peat smoke and coastal brine swirl on the tongue, with iodine and a teasing sea-salt lift. Deep dried fig and raisin unfold alongside dark cacao and espresso, all wrapped in spicy oak. It sits full and velvety, building to a long, warming finish where smoke, cocoa and red-fruit sweetness linger.

Finish

Long, maritime finish with coastal peat and sea-salt tang, warming into peppery spice. Sherry-influenced sweetness lingers as dark fruit, cocoa and nutmeg hover, tapering to a refined oak and savoury finish with a drying, salty kiss.
