Port Ellen 40 Year Old 1983-2023 Refill Sherry Butt #680 by Finn Thomson Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The Finn Thomson Port Ellen 40-Year-Old (Cask #680) is an ultra-rare, high-value independent single cask release from the bottler’s prestigious "Private Cask Collection". Distilled on March 16, 1983—just weeks before the historic Islay ghost distillery was shuttered—it was aged for four decades in a single Refill Sherry Butt before being bottled on November 6, 2023, at a natural cask strength of 52.7% ABV. Due to forty years of intense natural evaporation, the cask yielded a microscopic outturn of just 9 bottles globally, making it an exceptionally elusive "closing vintage" Port Ellen.
