Old Pulteney 12 year old, 40%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2025 ● Reviewer: David Fleming ● Category: Single Malt American Whiskey
Matured in bourbon barrels by the sea in Scotland’s Northern Highlands. Lemon peel, dried seashells, and fresh lilacs on a beautifully fragrant nose. The palate is soft and light, offering pound cake, vanilla, and a hint of spice. It fills the palate and chest with surprising power going down, all with balance and unity of flavors. Palate-coating and mouth-filling for its low ABV, it’s a delicious whisky that overdelivers on its proof.
