Äntligen fick jag tag i den sista The Bottlers Port Ellen. Kostade nästan 4 gånger så mycket som den första jag köpte för ett antal år sedan. Min poäng: ?? p

Tasting notes från whiskyfun: Officiella tasting notes:

Port Ellen 19yo 1981/2000 (59.4%, The Bottlers, cask #1550)
Colour: amber. Nose: oh yes, yes, yes (I’m mimicking Davin), when great peat meets great sherry and sleep together for quite a few years it gives a fab baby. Superb raisins, superb rum, superb chocolate, superb smoke, superb peat, superb soy sauce, superb balsamic vinegar, superb orange marmalade… Something of a high-end cognac… Well, I guess you get the picture. Stunning. Mouth: a superb attack, with tons of sherry but nothing ‘heavy’, lots of smoke and rubber (just below the limit I must say), chocolate, blackberry jam, dozens of different jams in fact, pralines… Okay, it’s just superb. There’s just a little too much rubber for it to be 100% perfect (95 points or more) so it’s going to be 93 points.
