Douglas Laing Port Ellen 1978 2002 57,9% for Whisky shop 10th Anniversary

Beautiful typical Port Ellen nose, a delicate mixture between smokiness and zestiness, lemons, slightly iodine, some maritime saltiness,

Definitely a very oomphy Port Ellen, slightly salted, then comes the sweetness, before the peatiness finally arrives, definitely a bit nutty as well

The peat smoke lingers, accompanied by the subtle zestiness, but the finish is not as long as I would expect
