Old Pulteney 35 Year Old

Following on their their phenomenal 40 year old release a little while back, the Old Pulteney distillery in Wick have produced another stunningly well-aged single malt. The limited edition 35 year old was matured in American ex-bourbon and Spanish ex-Sherry casks, selected specially for this release by Old Pulteney distillery manager Malcolm Waring, and bottled with no chill-filtration at 42.5% ABV. It comes presented in a wooden case featuring a porthole - a reference to Old Pulteney's close relationship with all things nautical. Thick, juicy slices of fruit cake, with cocoa and toffee sauce drizzled on top. Clementine segments and vanilla pods. More citrus notes, with honey-nut cereals and plump raisins. Sherried spices, old leather and a waft of sea-breeze.
