Tasting Notes
Old Pulteney 12 Year Old is a delightful whisky that offers a delightful symphony of flavors. Imagine diving into a honeycomb, with its sweet, golden richness enveloping your senses, complemented by the warmth of vanilla and the subtle earthiness of soft, sawdust-like oakiness. But that's not all – it also evokes the comforting aroma of freshly baked oatcakes, creating a delightful harmony. As you take a sip, the flavors unfold like a captivating story, with notes of chocolate peanuts, refreshing mint, zesty citrus peels, and a hint of the maritime elements that whisper tales of its coastal origins. A sprinkle of white pepper adds a playful kick. The finish is a delightful dance of toffee sweetness, a gentle brine that reminds you of the sea, and a bright lemon note that lingers pleasantly on the palate. Entirely aged in bourbon casks, this whisky strikes a perfect balance between the characteristic coastal salinity and the alluring sweetness of bourbon, making it an excellent introduction to the world of Old Pulteney or a delightful addition for those already familiar with its charms.
