The largest cork tree is the Whistler Tree in the Alentejo region of Portugal. The 2009 harvest yielded 825 kg (1,818 lb) of raw cork - enough for 100,000 wine bottles. The average cork oak produces material for 4,000 bottles.
The Whistler Tree is over 230 years old. It has been harvested every nine years since 1820 will next be harvested in 2018.
