Port Ellen Distillery
Diageo announced the reopening of Port Ellen way back in 2017 and fans of the distillery have been waiting excitedly since then. Finally rescheduled for re-opening in 2023, Port Ellen has garnered a cult following that is delighted by the news, and by the knock on impact to the value of vintage bottles on the secondary market.
When Port Ellen closed in 1983 its original stills were lost, which is always going to be the biggest point of contention for Port Ellen drinkers and analysts in the future, how close could the distillate really be? Rumoured to only produce 500,000 litres per year for the first decade of production, Port Ellen will be something to really focus on as people prepare to compare old and new in the next few years.
Hart Brothers
Hart Brothers dates back to the late 19th century when the family were licensed victualers and publicans in Paisley, a mill town on the outskirts of Glasgow.
In 1964, Iain & Donald Hart incorporated the company as Wine & Spirit Wholesalers and Scotch Whisky Blenders.
The company saw a significant addition in 1975 when Alistair Hart joined. As the chief blender, he had the responsibility of sourcing vintage casks of single malt whisky. Such casks were further matured under the Hart Brothers’ guidance before bottling.
Today, Hart Brothers are known for bottling rare and high age statement scotch whiskies, including the Finest Collection.
