Product details
Port Ellen Tomer Goren's 37 Yr 1979 Single Malt Scotch is a rare independent release from the historic Port Ellen name, selected by Tomer Goren for Whisky Live Tel Aviv. Distilled in 1979 and bottled in 2017 after 37 years of maturation in a refill Sherry hogshead, this limited release yielded just 241 bottles. Its long maturation and connection to Port Ellen’s celebrated late-1970s production make it a particularly distinctive expression for collectors seeking rare releases from this historic Islay producer.
The profile is gentle and layered, opening with earthy peat alongside fresh red berries, orchard fruit, hay, dried grass, apricot, and honey. The palate develops more pronounced peat, balanced by honey, red fruit, oak spice, and dark chocolate, with notes of cinnamon, clove, and white pepper adding further complexity. The finish is medium to long, bringing together subtle peat, honeyed sweetness, gentle red-fruit character, and lingering peppery spice.
