These five make a superb collection. Port Ellen has been closed for many years, the last of its maritime malt much prized. The Coal Ila bottlings show a fresh, sea-smoky style, to different degrees. Lagavulin's deep intensity needs no introduction, the 12 year old's new spirit contrasting with the richness of the 16 year old.
Coal Ila 12 Year Old
Coal Ila has a fresh, sweetly fruity and smooth-bodied house style.
43% ABV / 20cl
Coal Ila 18 Year Old
Age introduces a golden colour and complexity to this 18 year old Coal Ila, which is softer than the 12 year old.
43% ABV / 20cl
Lagavulin 12 Year Old
A straight, cask-strength special release of Lagavulin, this pale, very medicinal 12 year old will appeal to those who like their Islay malts direct.
56.5% ABV / 20cl
Lagavulin 16 Year Old
Deep-coloured and deep chested, Lagavulin 16 year old makes a rich, sweet contrast to the 12 year old.
43% ABV / 20cl
Port Ellen 25 Year Old 5th Release
A big, ripe, cask-strength Port Ellen, assertive and vigorous for its age, with the classic maritime character.
57.1% / 20cl
