Old Pulteney 21 years old Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Old Pulteney

“Lots of sherry inside this Old Pulteney whisky. Interesting nose but I don't think this is the best whisky of 2012.”

89
Old Pulteney 21 year
Bottled unchillfiltered, this is much more intense than you usually find with Pulteney. Lots of gingery, peppery spices on the palate. We always thought this was very good, but Jim Murray just declared it the best whisky in the world!

This dram has a gold-like color.

Nose (90): more than average. fruits, honey, peat, salt, peaches, sulphur. A bearable note of sulphur.

Palate (88): powerful, oily. honey, fruits, peat, cocoa, tobacco, vanilla, nuts. A heavy oloroso sherry theme.

Finish (88): longer than average. peat, cocoa, wood, nuts.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Old Pulteney 21 year with 89 points over 100.
