For many THE iconic Islay malt. The third release is one of only 9000 bottles. The distillery was mothballed in 1983, then demolished. The warehouse is still there, allowing Diageo to release annual bottlings. No more whisky can be made, however, so these are incredibly sought after.
Distilled: 1979

57.3% ABV / 70cl
