Worldwide Whisky Of The Year 2012
Old Pulteney 21 years
Description
Old Pulteney 21 years old presents a golden amber color, with hints of honey and straw reflections. Full-bodied and soft aroma, with notes of fruit (apples and pears) and oak mixed with touches of spices. The palate is fruity and slightly sweet at first, with touches of honey and vanilla, followed by warm notes of wood, with dry finish.
On the most northerly shores of Scotland, where the North Sea meets the Caithness coast, there is a town, Wick, home to a whisky which captures the very essence of its location, the famouse Old Pulteney, known as the maritime malt.
