Port Ellen's Star Sign Is A Gemini

 

It appears that the legendary Port Ellen is back - this time with a pair of releases titled Gemini.

To releases are in store, a Port Ellen Gemini Original Cask and a Port Ellen Gemini Remnant Cask, both aged to a grand 44 years old.

Both are bottled at the same 52.5% ABV and seem to share the same sized outturn of 288 bottles each - which would further imply that these releases are meant to be collected as a pair.

 

 

They appear to be bottled in decanters each bearing an opposing yin-yang white and black color scheme.

 

The Port Ellen Gemini Original Cask, aged in classic European oak, carries the following tagline:

 

A Giant Awakens

The Light Of Islay Shines Brightly Still, As Port Ellen Awakens.

A Legacy Spirit, Untouched, Reveals What Time Has Distilled.

 

 

While the Port Ellen Gemini Remnant Cask, aged in a more ambiguous "remnant cask finish", carries the tagline:

 

A New Day Dawns

With Guiding Hand And Amber Light, Port Ellen Is Reborn

A Single Cask Beholds The Fruit Of History In Its Grain, For Time To Savour
