Pe1 Elements Of Islay Speciality Drinks 50cl

A bottle of Pe1, distilled at Port Ellen distillery and bottled by Speciality Drinks for the Elements of Islay range.

The Elements of Islay range is bottled from small batches of casks from a single distillery, with each label depicting the distillery’s ‘Element’ symbol alongside a batch number (eg Pe1).

Port Ellen was established as a malt mill in 1825, and later developed into a distillery by John Ramsay. The distillery closed in 1983, though the maltings continue to supply many of Islay's distilleries. Stocks of Port Ellen are still available and the whisky has become highly collectible since the distillery closed, though it is no longer part of Diageo's annual Special Releases. In 2017, Diageo announced that Port Ellen distillery is to be rebuilt in its original buildings, and would reopen in 2020.
