Description: Single Malt
Distillery: Old Pulteney
Region: Highland
Vintage: -
Year Bottled: -
Classic full-bodied Old Pulteney with a twist of sweetness as they use some Spanish Oak in the maturation process.
The familiar depth and complexity is there, but this time with butterscotch, baked pears and unforgettable finish.
Bottled without chill filtering, this is an outstanding dram.
The 17-year-old predominantly features ex-bourbon maturation, with the addition of spirit that has been wholly matured in Spanish wood ex-sherry casks, predominantly Pedro Ximenez and Oloroso.
This adds a subtle depth and complexity to the whisky, making for an outstanding after-dinner drink.
