Old Pulteney 13 Year Old Single Cask Ex-Bourbon Single Malt Whisky 700ml
Old Pulteney 13 Year Old Single Cask Ex-Bourbon Single Malt Whisky 700ml
There’s something romantic about an ex-bourbon cask single malt… Nothing to hide behind as a single cask, really capable of showing the distilleries character. So when one comes out at this exceptional quality, well, we can’t help but get a little excited.
This month’s release is delightful! It’s everything balanced and full of flavour like any great single cask Highland Single Malt. Matured in a single cask ex-bourbon barrel, our March release of Old Pulteney has picked up a fresh fruity flavour, slightly spicy zest and a salty maritime chocolate character from the seaside maturation.
Anyone who knows Old Pulteney knows it’s character. A robust maritime whisky.. Maybe not thought of in the same breath as Talisker or Bunnahabhain, but it ought to be!
Odd still shapes and old school condensers give us a weighty, oily spirit. Warehouses (actually) by the north sea give us a salty seaside character. Finally, the low scale, hands on production lets us find gems like this one.
After trying this winning pick I asked the boys, do you remember playing footy as a kid? Something about that season, the wet grass, the crisp fresh air, even a touch of wet dirt – then at half time through your game they bring out the, somehow, the freshest, juiciest and most refreshing orange slices you’ll ever have.
I shouted “Half Time Oranges!” and we damn near put it on the bottle.
A single cask Highland single malt. Aged for 13 years and 10 months (hey, when it’s ready, it’s ready) sitting at 53% from a 2006 vintage. Our first Bourbon cask single malt with many more to come.
