Port Ellen (silent) The Golden Cask Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Miniature 25 Year Old

Colour

Radiant golden amber with honey-warm depth and a subtle coppery sheen.

Nose

Port Ellen, The Golden Cask opens with robust peat smoke and sea-salted air, layered over rich sherry sweetness. Dried fig and raisin mingle with toffee, cocoa and a whisper of leather, while iodine and bonfire smoke add a maritime bite that lingers invitingly on the nostrils.

Palate

Silky, emphatic peat sweeps across a rich sherry-laced core, unveiling dark plum, fig and cocoa. Orange zest and toasted almond weave with oak, while sea-salt and iodine pull the palate toward the coast. Full-bodied and warming at 51% ABV, the finish is long and smoky, with spice, espresso hints, and a lingering maritime bite.

Finish

Long, plush finish with coastal peat and sea-salt, layered with sherried dark fruit, cocoa and burnt sugar. A gentle smoke threads through the sweetness, giving spice and almond notes that linger, fading to toasted oak and a refined, resinous warmth.
