развернуть подробно
В текстовых отзывах Port Ellen 15th Release последовательно описывается как выразительно морской и дымный виски. В аромате упоминаются ваниль, цитрусовые, минералы, соль, дым, морской воздух, водоросли и специи; во вкусе — маслянистость, медикаментозные и «кипперные» ноты, соль, минералы, перец, дым и лёгкая сладость. Финиш описывается как долгий, тёплый, торфяной, солёный и «кипперный». Один из отзывов сравнивает аромат с песчаным морским берегом в прохладном климате в ветреный, но солнечный день. Также встречаются описания нот шоколада, карамели, сливок, дыни, тропических фруктов, кожи и жжёного дерева.
Несколько отзывов сравнивают этот релиз с другими: отмечается, что он более торфяной и динамичный, но менее фруктовый, чем другие релизы, и что он немного уступает 13-му и 14-му релизам, но идёт в одном ряду с 16-м. Один отзыв называет его «абсолютным попаданием», другой — «очень вкусным», а ещё один описывает гармонию зерна и торфа с элегантным, лёгким и сложным характером. При этом один отзыв отмечает, что финиш кажется немного «полым» и слишком «чистым» по стандартам Port Ellen.

Amber color. This whisky is extremely oily in a glass.

| Нос | 88 | Intense and full. At first, sweetness. Vanilla. Then salt. Salty caramel. Smoky notes. Sea breeze. Sea salt. Seaweed. Spices. Black pepper. Caramel again. Deep underneath are airy fruity notes and traces of pine needles. Minerality. Some citrus comes out. Smoky lemon sprinkled with salt and vanilla oil. The nose is reminiscent of a sandy seashore in a cool climate on a fairly windy but sunny day. |
| Вкус | 91 | Very intense, full and enjoyable. Lots of smoke, salt, minerality. The palace is made of wood. Fresh fruit. |
| Финиш | 91 | Intense. Lots of smoke. The palace is made of wood. Spices. Black pepper. Fresh fruit. Citrus. Traces of vanilla in the background. Later, you can feel the thick pieces of wood burning in the fire again. Extremely long finish. |
Tasting of releases 13 14 15 and 16 16th PE lemony and oily peat on its bed of smoke. With hints of toffee and small citrus zests 15th in line with 16th; just a bit below 14th in line with 16th; just a bit below 13th A bit more earthy and less lemony
N: This is a blend of 12 barrels, put in at 67% and bottled collectively at 53.9%. It's chatty with lots of peated chocolate on the nose, peppered ham, rancid, tropical fruit notes, buttered coal tar, smoked ice-cream (is that a thing?) and heavy leather. In fact Colin Dunn coined this one ‘Port Ellen in a leather coat’. T: Fabulous arrival, salty, liquid peat, malty peat with all the oily, minerals, fruity, stone, flinty notes associated frequently with PE. Interestingly its almost identical to the Port Askaig 30 WB which preceded this tasting. F: Fruity, smoky peat,...... is that it! Again, the Port Askaig had an almost identical finish. It's a bit hollow, a bit too clean by PE standards…. but eventually, there's a little Port Ellen-ess at the end, but it's slight. C: Simply delicious stuff, but like the Brora, surprisingly undramtic or overly remarkable. The end of the end? How many barrels are left, barrels good enough to release as official bottlings? Maybe it's only the status and mystique of the rare releases that's keeping the circus touring? Scores a B[+] 88
WLW 2021 An absolutely banger of a dram, my mind was blown
Very delicious.

| Нос | 94 | The peat flavor is stronger than that of the 2004sr, with rich caramel, cream, vanilla, chocolate, obvious cantaloupe ice cream, and a little bit of dark preserved fruit and sea water. After waking up, there are still some clear popcorn aromas, some faint green plant juice and slight dried red dates aromas, the aroma of citrus fruits, mango, green banana, and unclear but very obvious floral scents. The overall style is more elegant and rounded than 2004sr. |
| Вкус | 93 | The sweetness, fat and alcohol are all suppressed very well. The same style as 25, first the aroma of preserved fruit, malt, rice cake, chocolate bursts in the mouth, and then the peat and seawater flavor connects. But maybe because the aroma in the front section is deeper than 25, the transition from the front to the middle section of this one is smoother than 25, and the peat flavor is equally strong and gentle. |
| Финиш | 93 | In the middle and late stages, the flavor of cantaloupe ice cream and peat lingers in the mouth, and at the very end it evolves into the taste of some rubber ash. |

Drank at the distillery today. A total harmony between the grain and the peat. A peat that is also elegant, light, fresh and complex. A great pleasure shared under the sun facing the sea with an oily and citrusy sensation in the mouth and a long, long and still fully peaty finish. A delight. What a joy to have been able to taste it! 95/100
Well, my first "died sample" - too bad, I should probably try or transfer, about 1.5cl in a 5cl bottle (rest gift) are probably not very durable.
Although not as fruity as the other releases, this one is more peaty and dynamic.
Tasted during Feis Ile 2018 with 13th, 14th and 16th. Elegant nose, simpler and tasty palate. Another great Port Ellen.
Bottler's Note: Color: Polished teak. Good perlage. Aroma: direct, intense and very complex. At first very fruity, with shells of red apples and fresh pears, which turns into a lush toffee note. You smell the beach - hot sand, sea air, seaweed and the ashes from the campfire - as the development increases. Wonderfully honeyed with water; The toffee is wrapped in wood smoke and leads to a sweet pungency, with malty appeal. Taste: Wonderful in natural cask strength of 53.9%. Sweet, sparkling and dry, with a great blend of wood ash, roasted marmalade tart, toffee and caramelized orange. Then increasingly penetrating smoke with a spicy herbal note and a hint of carnations.A little water makes it cooler and milder. Moderate in the body. Resonance: Long, cooling and complex. Dry, yet enveloping. Immediately appetizing, with apple, roasted toast, lemon zest, ripe red apples and baked plum tartlets. Many herbal notes and heavy, with wood smoke that softens with water. Mint, barley sugar and honey on toasted toast.
