Distillery Exclusive

Alc/Vol: 53% 

Exclusively available to buy from Pulteney distillery and via Old Pulteney’s online shop, Old Pulteney Distillery Exclusive. This limited-edition expression is a tribute to our coastal hometown on the Caithness Coast which shapes the character of our whisky.

To create this limited-edition single malt Scotch whisky, Distillery Manager Malcolm Waring carefully hand-selected his favourite casks to create a delicious flavour profile before keeping a watchful and expert eye over the whisky as it matured at Pulteney distillery in Wick. The whisky was first filled in American oak casks before further maturation in French oak, pulling through deep, sweet notes with a subtle spice.

With traditional warehouses exposed to the invigorating sea air blowing in off the North Sea, Old Pulteney captures the taste of the sea in every drop of its liquid gold. From subtle coastal chords to more defined salty notes, the flavour of our whisky says much about the role and influence of our home.

A product of its inspiringly distinctive and lively coastal location, Distillery Exclusive reaffirms that Old Pulteney truly is The Maritime Malt.

Appearance

Amber with lighter copper hues

Aroma

Rich with deep sweetness. Notes of caramelised apple, warm custard and cinnamon spiced pastries. Towards the end, we see fresh rye bread with bright orange citrus, stone fruits and delicate oak dryness.

Taste

Deep sweetness and spice. Toffee, nutmeg and caramelised popcorn envelop the palate and continue to develop into rich blossom honey, roasted almonds and creamy vanilla. Spices and honey linger on with a welcome tannic dryness in the form of dried fruits.
