Description
Hailing from the historic coastal town of Wick, the Pulteney Distillery has been crafting its legendary “Maritime Malt” since 1826. This 16-year-old expression perfectly captures the rugged essence of the Caithness coast, where traditional dunnage warehouses are exposed to the salt-heavy North Sea air throughout the maturation process. As a sought-after choice for those looking to buy whisky South Africa, this 750ml bottling serves as an essential bridge between the vibrant core range and the distillery’s rare vintage releases. Its reputation has grown steadily among enthusiasts, making it a centerpiece for any collection of premium whisky South Africa. To best appreciate the maritime character, we suggest serving this single malt neat or with a single drop of chilled spring water to reveal its oily, coastal texture.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: A refreshing bouquet of lemon curd, zesty grapefruit, and a hint of fresh hay, underpinned by rich, creamy vanilla.
- Palate: Exceptionally balanced and full-bodied, delivering notes of dark chocolate, roasted nuts, and a warming kick of fresh ginger and cracked pepper.
- Finish: Long and elegant, characterized by the distillery’s signature mineral saltiness and a lingering touch of oak spice.
