    Old Pulteney 12 Year Old

    The 12 year old expression from Old Pulteney released in mid-2018 was entirely aged in bourbon casks, resulting in a heavy influence of bourbon sweetness - which helps to balance the characteristic coastal salinity of the whisky. An excellent introduction to Old Pulteney (though well worth a look even if you've already been introduced).

    1st taste of old pulteney .

    Had a bottle bought for my birthday well impressed nice and smooth with a lovely briney aftertaste.

    An excellent introductory whiskey

    An excellent whiskey. The best Highlands whiskey I've had the pleasure to taste - great value of it's price. My favorite whiskeys tend to be the Islay whiskeys, but Old Pulteney is a delight. I would also say that it's a great whiskey to use as an introductory whiskey to someone who's only had the blended swill, and formed their opinion on whiskey on that. Recently introduced just such a person to Old Pulteney 12 yo, and got a great reaction - a convert to good whiskey. I'm baffled by the few low star reviews. Maybe they were unlucky and got some bad batch?

    very inconsistent

    too great a variation from one bottle to another - generally pleasant enough Highland daily sippers, with light sweet nose and buttered honey, but some bottles are offensive with harsh medicinal alcohol nose and throat burn as only length

    Lovely Whisky

    ... wanted to try and was not disappointed ... very nice whisky and very well described on the box .. would definitely buy this again .. best whisky I've had in a while ...

    A bit inconsistent

    Nose - Honey Palette - Less honey, more grainy Finish - Warm, longish, mostly warming alcohol. I have found this whisky inconsistent. Some bottles wonderfully honeyed. Others a bit rough. Decent enough whisky, even at its worst.
