12 Year Old 40% 70cl

Old Pulteney 12 Year Old

Fully matured for 12 years in bourbon casks in their salt encrusted warehouses on the north coast of Scotland, Old Pulteney 12 balances plenty of sweeter notes with briny notes and even the tiniest dash of smoke.

Staff Tasting Notes

Nose – A burst of apricot, pear, green banana and peach, coupled with a fruity oiliness come across with first nosing. Soft undertones of seaweed and brine follow, rounded off by cane sugar, butter scotch and honeycomb. With a bit more time in the glass; floral aromas, grassiness, honeydew and melon begin to appear.

Palate – A citrusy palate, filled with orange, grapefruit zest, followed by lemon and a warming honey oiliness. A bit more butterscotch. More sugary notes on the palate, with hints of vanilla and icing sugar. An easy drinking, but at the same time mouth coating, intricate whisky. The finish shows a bit of spice and a dash of smokey sea air.
