Port Ellen (silent) – Eidolon Islay Single Malt – Second Release 1982 40YO – Hard To Find Whisky News

Port Ellen (silent)

Eidolon

40 Year Old | 70cl | 56.5% ABV

Port Ellen (silent) – Eidolon Islay Single Malt – Second Release 1982 40 year old Whisky

When Port Ellen closed its doors in 1983, everyone assumed that it would be for the final time. The good news is that the distillery has been rebuilt and will re-open shortly. The other good news is this fantastic 40 year old, bottled by Hunter Laing.

£4,499.95

Add To Basket

Eidolon – Port Ellen 40 Year Old – the second release in a rare and limited edition series. Distilled in 1982 shortly before the legendary Islay distillery was to close, only 403 bottles of the limited-edition Port Ellen Islay Single Malt Whisky are available. The Eidolon series is presented at a natural cask strength of 56.5% ABV and without artificial colouring or chill-filtration.

Deep amber in colour, the nose opens with immediate sherry cask influence – rich red fruit, cocoa, cherry, pecan, caramel and sweet pipe tobacco.

On the palate it is intense and expressive, with dark chocolate, espresso, citrus, polished wood, more fragrant tobacco and an all-encompassing Islay peat smoke.

With time in the glass and a few drops of water added more herbal notes and a sea-breeze/oyster freshness are apparent.

The finish is never-ending, with old fishing nets, tar, honey, black tea and chocolate almonds lingering on. Truly a wonderful example of the legendary Port Ellen Distillery’s output.

American Oak Second-Fill
17 Year Old Whisky

17 years in the making, on Monday we release our oldest American oak second-fill yet. On the 19th of January, 2021 our sensory panel tasted TD0064 and said “Watch this cask – it’s going places”. They were right. Over two years and 21 tastings later, a 17 year long maturation has created a graceful, warm, complex, and comforting tapestry of flavour.

17 Year Old American Oak Second-Fill TD0064

By the grace of second-fill American oak and the skill, patience and restraint of the Sullivans Cove production team, we have an exceptionally memorable, Old & Rare whisky. Matured for 17 years in a second-fill 300L American oak cask, yielding just 446 bottles of Sullivans Cove single cask whisky.

1993 Springbank 25 Year Old “The Perfect Fifth” First Fill Sherry Butt No. 315 Cask Strength Single Malt ~ Scotch Whisky News

1993 Springbank 25 Year Old “The Perfect Fifth” First Fill Sherry Butt No. 315 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (750ml)

$1,500.00 View

An absolute gem in the Perfect Fifth line up. At 96 points it’s close to the legendary Highland Park they’ve also bottled, but for half the price. Jim Murray says, “Anyone who remembers the old Springbank 25-year-olds of the early 1990s will recognize this aroma as a direct descendent – indeed it is near enough identical in both weight and character. The huge, nuggety oak is faultless (this must have come from a cask which had been seasoned in the old – virtually lost – style). Salt dominates but there are dried apricots and spiced pear, too. Meanwhile the vaguest of peaty notes (and I mean the odd atom here and there!) teases away as a barely audible background noise, which automatically becomes louder the moment you spot it. Taste: A malt on the threshold of perhaps dallying too closely with the oak. But that coastal-style bite makes just the right contact with the salty tannins and cocoa-laden phenol to make a course for more complex and satisfying port. Just enough oil makes the middle rich and promises a long finale. Finish: Drier, as is to be expected, as the tannins raise their game. Still salty, but a little barley sugar and lemon juice lightens the intensity, though – happily, but not too much; the residual oils ensure the finish is of extraordinary length. Balance: A real return to the past here with Springbank in its most full-bodied, uncompromising and complex style which those of us who discovered the distillery in the 1980s remember with great affection.”

About the KWM 2023 Whisky Calendar

The KWM Whisky Calendar, aka “25 Days of Dram Fine Whisky”, is back for the 10th straight year. Not only will it have a fresh new look this year, but it will be in a completely redesigned box. This year’s Calendar includes 25 28ml premium whiskies and a custom logo wee Glencairn glass. You can follow along on the KWM Blog starting December 1st, or on one of our various social media channels as we introduce and discuss each day’s whisky.

We will be revealing the design for the KWM 2023 Whisky Calendar in a few weeks’ time!

We will also be hosting Whisky Calendar Recap Tastings throughout the month of December. Purchasers and recipients of the KWM 2023 Whisky Calendar will be able to join us for any or all of the 5 virtual tastings on December 5, 10, 15, 20 and after Christmas on the 27th, at 7 PM MT. Each of them will cover the 5 previous day’s whiskies in the Calendar.

Every year someone asks the question, but we always keep the exact calendar whisky list a secret, as there are too few surprises left in this life… But we can tell you this year’s Calendar includes 3 KWM exclusive casks, a Scotch Malt Whisky Society bottling, at least five whiskies in their 20s, and more new distilleries and producers than we have featured in a long time. We are confident that this is the best Whisky Calendar lineup we have ever pulled together because we weren’t limited by what was available to us in 50mls!

Best of all, if you select the pre-pay preorder option, you will save $40… but this offer is only open for two weeks, until midnight, Sunday, September 24th!

We anticipate the KWM 2023 Whisky Calendars should be ready for pick up by October 31st.
