Port Ellen 1969 G&M Brown Label - bottled 85'-86', 40%
Port Ellen never had an official bottling from 1969, hence the only opportunity to taste this vintage of PE, is through G&M.
One of the biggest joys of whisky life is to be able to taste some of the old Islay drams that carry a lot of Iodine, tons of fruit, and very little smoke. This is the case of this legandary bottle. An era where Port Ellen Maltings was supplying the whole island with peated malt.
We will have this exceptional dram at Whisky Abbey at the Old and Rare bar.

Ikawa Distillery at Whisky Abbey 2024: Japanese Whisky from New Heights
At 1,200 meters above sea level in the Southern Alps, Ikawa Distillery is redefining Japanese whisky. Since 2020, the distillery has harnessed the power of its pristine natural environment, pure spring water, and Mizunara oak casks to create something truly unique.
This masterclass introduces four standout whiskies, including the Ikawa New Born, Ikawa New Born Peated, and an unreleased future malt cask sample. Each whisky reflects Ikawa’s commitment to its surroundings and artisanal methods.
A rare opportunity to experience the depth of Japanese craftsmanship.
