PORT ELLEN 12 YEAR OLD
- Limited production edition
This very rare 12 year old was bottled for attendees of the visit of Queen Elizabeth II in 1980, and is believed to have been the only distillery bottling produced in its years of operation. The exact number of bottles is unknown, but it is accepted that enough were filled so that the Queen and all senior staff present on the day could have one.
- The only whisky to score a near-perfect
In terms of taste, it was the reputation of being a truly outstanding dram. Indeed, this is the only whisky to score a near-perfect 99/100 on WhiskyFun.com, the highest rating Serge Valentin has ever awarded. We can only see this version in pictures and luckily at the recent auction, whiskey lovers are once again seeing the extremely rare version after four decades for £72,000. With it currently being unavailable in even the most specialist of whisky retailers, this is genuinely a ‘money can’t buy’ opportunity for any whisky enthusiast.
