The Old Pulteney Pineau des Charentes Coastal Series is a limited-edition single malt whisky that exemplifies the distillery's signature maritime character, enhanced by the sweet complexity of Pineau des Charentes cask finishing. Bottled in 2022, this 46% ABV whisky hails from the Highlands and is matured initially in ex-bourbon casks before a final aging in specially-selected French oak Pineau des Charentes casks. These casks have previously held a unique fortified wine from the Charente region in southwest France, imparting a lighter, sweeter flavor profile that beautifully complements the whisky's traditional salty notes.
On the nose, this whisky offers a bouquet of honey, vanilla, homemade jam, and stewed apples, with layers of candied orange, cinnamon, balsamic raisins, and black pepper. The palate reveals a symphony of caramelised hazelnuts, ground cinnamon, raisins, orange peel, sea salt, and honey, intertwined with an oak-infused spiciness. The finish is viscous and lingering, characterized by warm spices and oakiness, balanced perfectly by creamy vanilla.
This whisky is the maiden release in the Coastal series from Old Pulteney, a distillery deeply connected to its hometown of Wick, a historic fishing port in the Scottish Highlands. The stunning coastal location of the distillery significantly influences the character of Old Pulteney single malt Scotch whisky, making this limited-edition release an essential experience for whisky enthusiasts.
