Bottle Information
Bottler: Hunter Laing & Co.
Type: Single Malt Scotch
Tasting Notes
Nose Intensely aromatic, offering smouldering peat smoke, seashore brine, and aged leather-bound books, wrapped in notes of dried citrus peel and waxed oak.
Palate Complex and commanding—coal dust, sweet tobacco, and barley sugar flow across the palate with layers of dark chocolate, salted liquorice, and polished antique wood.
Finish Deep, long and memorable, echoing with embers, iodine, and a final flourish of candied ginger and charred citrus zest.
Introducing the Port Ellen 36 Year Old 1983 Eidolon 1st Release, the inaugural chapter in a prestigious three-part series from Hunter Laing & Co., celebrating the revered spirit of the legendary Islay distillery.
