Old Pulteney 25 Year

$569.99

Bottled at 46% after maturing in Ex-Bourbon and finishing in Ex-Sherry. Lovely with lots of layers.

Producer Description

"For a quarter of a century, casks of this rare expression of Old Pulteney Single Malt Scotch Whisky breathed the invigorating sea air of the Caithness coast. Sheltered from a fast-changing world by the darkened calm of a distillery warehouse, the spirit mellowed at its own steady pace, echoing the reassuring rhythm of its hometown port. Aged firstly in American oak, its spicy sweetness was later granted depth and colour by casks of Spanish oak. Elegant and charismatic, this wonderful whisky embodies both Wick’s spirit of endurance and Pulteney Distillery’s devotion to its craft."

Andrew's Tasting Note - 2019

Nose: sticky toffee pudding, maple syrup, dark chocolate, leather and tobacco; tropical fruits: candied pineapple, sliced mango and papaya, and honeydew melon.

Palate: thick, creamy and fruity; soft smooth leather and fruity tobacco; lovely sherry tones, more maple syrup, sticky toffee pudding drowning in cream with treacle sauce, and a touch of mincemeat pie; more tropical fruits; lots of layers!

Finish: long and fruity, more smooth leather, chocolate and tobacco with fading tropical fruits.

Comment: this is a big step up in price from the now discontinued 21 Year, but it is also a big step up in style, profile and complexity.

Producer Tasting Note

Nose: Mature and fragrant with heavy spices and dark chocolate notes.

Taste: Bitter chocolate and creamy vanilla with hints of toffee, followed by a long and spicy finish.
