Port Ellen Gemini: Exclusive Whisky Set Marks Reopening Port Ellen, the legendary whisky distillery on the Scottish island of Islay, is preparing to reopen its doors this spring following a multimillion-dollar refurbishment, a full 40 years after it fell silent. To mark the occasion, Diageo has announced a set of ultra-exclusive Scotch whiskies, Gemini, that will sit at the heart of an exclusive new guest experience at the Port Ellen distillery. The Gemini collection is formed of a 44-year-old whisky taken from three European oak casks. It’s the oldest whisky ever released under the Port Ellen name and with just 274 sets, one of the rarest as well. To make this whisky fit for the grand reopening, master blender Craig Wilson split it into two different casks for the final years of its maturation. By placing it in two different cask types, one whisky has become two, each with a distinct flavor profile. #investment #opportunity #whiskycollection #whiskylover #whiskybarrel #whiskycask #invest #investor #Investing #investors #assets #asset #assetmanagement #assetprotection #whisky #whiskylife #scotland  #scottish #scottishbusiness https://lnkd.in/gQx8SKU4

🥃BEWARE: Malts are more aristocratic than ever before❗❗ 🥃 The Netflix series The Gentlemen cements that further. Aged malts are becoming rarer and pricier with global demand making it difficult to offer long aged expressions. Auction reserve prices are through the roof and the thirst for fine single malts looks unquenchable! You might not believe it but a bottle of fine and rare 60 yr old The Macallan was sold for $1.9 million in 2019, making it the most expensive bottle of whisky ever sold. Amidst all of this, it's a task to find the right value deals especially for Scotch whisky. The same could be said for Japanese whiskey even though its having its own share of internal industry problems which the new regulations will hopefully settle. While whisky becomes increasingly aristocratic, its positioning is shifting towards younger drinkers who are thirsty for the rare drops. This phenomenon might not bring the prices down but one would see distillers and brands come up with unique ways to catch the attention of this new generation while keeping their coveted status symbol intact.
