Product Description
Old Pulteney 12 Year Old is a classic Highland malt that draws inspiration from its rugged surroundings. Nicknamed 'the maritime malt' thanks to its seaside location and its town’s long fishing history, this single malt was matured entirely in ex-bourbon barrels. A pleasing salinity and freshness leads to notes of butterscotch, grapefruit peel, and a peppery warmth wrapped around peat smoke.

Watery, smells slightly sour, tastes of very little and has a short finish. I only bought it because I'm away from home for a few days and fancied a whisky. Only have supermarkets nearby and I don't rate the others they sell. This was the only one I'd never tried. Well, that's me never buying whisky from a supermarket again. This is one of the weakest whiskies I've ever had. Very poor. And clearly they've added colouring to it.

Was recommended by a friend who bought for a Birthday gift. I wanted a decent bottle as a present for my son, (I don't drink whisky). Both son and daughter in law phoned to say how smooth and soothing it is, it will not last long!!

Somewhat disappointing....

Tar and leather dominate the nose in my opinion, didn't get much citrus until the aftertaste. Nice dram overall, and if you like smoky but with minimal peat, go for it!

Impressed. My family is from Islay and I'm not a fan of the whisky made there. This was a present brought back of Scotland to the states. I think I'll buy my sefl a bottle.
