ABV: 42.5%
Following on from a much praised 40 year old is another seriously old Pulteney - with stunning packaging to match the age statement.
The eye catching detail and design reflects the region’s rich maritime heritage and includes a beautifully crafted wooden box with 'porthole' exposing the distinctive Pulteney bottle. The whisky was matured in American ex-bourbon and Spanish ex-sherry casks, hand-selected by Distillery Manager, Malcolm Waring. Very limited.

Other reviews… Just 450 cases of this veteran expression from Old Pulteney have been released, offered in non-chill filtered format after maturation in a mixture of bourbon casks and Spanish oak sherry casks. Light fruit notes on the nose, notably tangerines, plus vanilla, lemon, and sea salt. Orchard fruits, spicy sherry, worn leather, and cocoa powder on the silky palate. Spicy and drying in the finish, with mild oak tannins.

…attractive mouthfeel is undermined by the drier oak elements, some of which are very dry; some lovely mint chocolate does offer great charm; a malt on the perimeter of its comfort zone. But there are enough gold nuggets included to make this work. Just.
