Old Pulteney 12 Years Old Highland Single Malt [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Highland single malt that perfectly balances coastal character with exceptional value?

As a certified spirits specialist, I’m delighted to present Old Pulteney 12 Years Old Highland Single Malt, a distinguished expression from Scotland’s most northerly mainland distillery. Known as the “Maritime Malt,” this premium whisky showcases the unique influence of sea air on its maturation process, delivering a distinctively briny complexity that sets it apart from typical Highland offerings. For those exploring the distillery’s range, consider the Old Pulteney 15 Years Old or the exceptional Old Pulteney 18 Years Old for deeper aged expressions.

• Distillery: Old Pulteney, established 1826 in Wick, Scotland’s northernmost mainland distillery
• Region: Highland – coastal location imparts distinctive maritime salinity
• ABV: 40% – approachable strength that preserves delicate coastal nuances
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: Ex-bourbon American oak casks for 12 years
• Tasting Notes: Nose reveals fresh citrus zest and sea spray with hints of vanilla. Palate delivers honeyed sweetness, green apple, and gentle spice with characteristic coastal salinity. Finish is medium-long with lingering sweet malt and maritime notes.
• Best Served: Neat in a tulip-shaped glass at room temperature, or with a splash of water to unlock complexity

Our spirits specialists at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store have found this expression particularly versatile for both newcomers and seasoned collectors, offering remarkable complexity at an accessible price point of RM 200. It stands alongside quality expressions like the Deanston 12 Years Highland Single Malt as excellent Highland representatives.
