What it’s like

Old Pulteney is made in Wick, an old herring port at the far north of Scotland, and prides itself on being a maritime malt. The twelve-year-old, matured in bourbon casks, combines honey, citrus and vanilla with a very characteristic briny touch and a dry finish. It has no peat smoke. It is a good choice for those who want to try coastal character without smoke, and it pairs very well with fish and seafood.

Nose
Honey, lemon and vanilla, with sea salt and a touch of fresh cereal.
Palate
Medium and smooth. Caramel, citrus and clear brininess, with some spice.
Finish
Medium, dry and briny, with a hint of honey and citrus fruit.
