Argh! I mean, it wasn't a very typical Old Pulteney, yet it bums me out that I didn't recognize a whisky from what is essentially one of my favourite distilleries.

Happy new year everybody! I thought I'd start 2016 with a very special bottling from one of my favourite distilleries. Specially selected for the Swedish market by two whisky enthusiasts, this single cask (a rarity) from Old Pulteney is really awesome!

It scares me that the Old Pulteney 12 Years is bottled at 40%. Then again, the distillery hasn't disappointed me yet, so there's no reason to think they'll start now.

A semi-official 15yo from my beloved Pulteney, bottled by Gordon & MacPhail.

You'd do well if you pick this Pulteney up at an airport. Although maybe not right now but when it is safer to fly again

It great to see that years after I last tasted this, the Old Pulteney 17yo holds up. I feel it is still one of the better distillery bottlings in its age/price bracket.

When it comes to Old Pulteney, I just can't help myself. I find it simply delicious whisky, also at a young age.

A lightly peated Old Pulteney? I love Pulteney, and am a sucker for a subtle peat influence, so this should be a match made in heaven, right?

Old Pulteney was my first true whisky love, and this single cask from Cadenhead is a great example of just how good their bourbon-matured whisky can be.

Old Pulteney and Cadenhead hit it out of the park again!

Independent bottlings of Old Pulteney are rare. Sherried single casks from Old Pulteney are even more rare. This Gordon & MacPhail single cask is a treat.

There have been quite a few single cask bottlings of Old Pulteney from 1997, either bottled for specific importers and shops, or offered as a hand-fill at the distillery. I've been lucky to taste a few of them. All have been good, while some were excellent even.
