Port Ellen 26

Country: Scotland

Region: Islay

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Douglas Laing & Co.

ABV: 46%

Score: 91 Points

The nose on this is slightly peaty with a hint of fruits and flowers (especially rose petals). It’s a nutty dram with flavors of almond and hazelnut, along with a touch of cinnamon and pepper. The peat returns on the finish and lingers with notes of seaweed and salt.
