Port Ellen is closed since 1983.
Ardbeg was temporally closed from 1983 to 1989, so just open in time for a 30 YO in 2021.
The others are:
Bowmore
Bunahabhain
Bruichladdich
Caol Ila
Lagavulin
and
Laphroaig.
For me it tastes like a Bunnahabhain or a Bruichladdich.

Kopke, L.B.V. (Late Bottled Vintage), 2011, Porto, 20%.
Lot: L 15267 / 5 16 14 (= bottled 05/16/2014 ?)

TN, 27-05-2021:
Just the last 1/3 glass out of an old open bottle (open from Feb. 2016 ?; but at least open for many years).
Some depot.
Still 100% okay !
Not too sweet, medium to full body, lots of nice tannins, well structured and with backbone. Enough complexity and length.
Lovely for a LBV.
Clearly from a top vintage.
A steal for € 15.
