Port Ellen 1974 Connoisseurs Choice Islay Single Malt
The Port Ellen distillery is located in Port Ellen on the isle of Islay, Scotland.
Port Ellen was established as a malt mill in 1825, and then developed as a distillery under John Ramsay from 1833 to 1892. The warehouses he built still exist and are now listed buildings. The distillery was acquired by the Distillers Company Limited in 1925, was closed in 1930 and rebuilt in 1966/1967. It continued in production throughout the 1970s and was closed in 1983, although supplies of its single malt whisky are still available. The distillery houses a malting that continues to supply all Islay distilleries, as per an agreement signed in 1987.
On 9 October 2017, Diageo announced that the Distillery will reopen in 2020, following a £35 million investment in re-opening both Port Ellen and also their closed Brora (aka Clynelish) distillery. Diageo has suggested the first new release might be of a 12 year old expression, i.e. in 2032, but has left the door open for possibly earlier releases.
