The Old Pulteney 16yo Traveller's Exclusive is a single malt whisky from the renowned Old Pulteney distillery, one of the most northern distilleries in Scotland's Highlands. This distinguished whisky has been aged for 16 years in a unique combination of ex-bourbon and ex-oloroso sherry casks, both hand-selected and air-dried. The maturation process takes place near the sea, where the coastal air imbues the casks with a distinctive maritime character, further enriching the whisky's intricate flavor profile.
The nose reveals a delightful blend of honeyed vanilla, tropical fruit, ginger, apples, creamy milk chocolate, and classic salty sea breeze aromas, characteristic of Old Pulteney. On the palate, rich notes of Christmas cake, green apples, soft baking spices, and dark chocolate are beautifully complemented by a hint of lingering sea salt. The deep amber color hints at the complex flavors within, while the additional aging in Spanish oak casks imparts a woody and earthy quality that enhances its maritime character.
This exquisite expression is marked by its complex, multi-layered aroma of spicy fruitiness, honey, vanilla, and floral notes, with hints of chocolate. The Old Pulteney 16yo Traveller's Exclusive is a well-rounded and balanced single malt whisky that delights with a unique flavor profile shaped by the harmonious interplay of ex-bourbon, ex-oloroso sherry casks, and coastal influence.
This whisky's uniqueness lies in its 16-year maturation in a mix of ex-bourbon and ex-oloroso sherry casks, along with the coastal influence from the distillery's seaside location.
The whisky offers a complex array of flavors, including vanilla, honey, tropical fruit, chocolate, cinnamon, apple, caramel, and a salted caramel finish.
The coastal air infuses the casks during maturation, imparting a unique maritime character that includes hints of sea salt, enhancing the overall flavor profile.
As a whisky enthusiast, I find the Old Pulteney 16yo Traveller's Exclusive to be an extraordinary single malt that seamlessly combines sweet and spicy fruitiness with a subtle maritime touch. The masterful use of ex-bourbon and ex-oloroso sherry casks, coupled with the coastal influence, results in a rich, well-balanced whisky that is both complex and deeply satisfying. This bottle is a must-try for any single malt aficionado.
