Old Pul­te­ney 1990 Vin­ta­ge is a matu­re and full-fla­vou­red addi­ti­on to the port­fo­lio. It’s burs­t­ing with the coas­tal mari­ti­me cha­rac­ter, the depth and the com­ple­xi­ty found in other expres­si­ons, while offe­ring an inte­res­t­ing twist which is sure to exci­te and delight sin­gle malt drin­kers around the world. The 1990 Vin­ta­ge was matu­red in both Ame­ri­can ex-bour­bon casks and Spa­nish ex-sher­ry casks which were pre­vious­ly used for age­ing hea­vi­ly pea­ted malt. This resi­du­al pea­ti­ness has added an unex­pec­ted dimen­si­on and allo­wed the whis­ky to deve­lop an exqui­si­te­ly rich and exci­ting tas­te profile.

Old Pul­te­ney 1990 Vin­ta­ge is bot­t­led at 46% ABV. The whis­ky has not been chill-fil­te­red and is pre­sen­ted at its beau­tiful natu­ral colour. It’s a strict­ly limi­t­ed offe­ring, only 900 cases of this uni­que spi­rit will be made available world-wide from Novem­ber 2013. The recom­men­ded retail pri­ce in the UK is £120.

The Maritime Malt

Old Pul­te­ney 1990 Vin­ta­ge was matu­red for around 23 years, from the 1990 to 2013, in Pul­te­ney Distillery’s warehou­ses in the town of Wick, right on the winds­wept Caith­ness coast. The nor­t­hern, coas­tal loca­ti­on of the distil­lery and its bond­ed warehou­ses plays a vital role in deve­lo­ping Old Pulteney’s unmist­aka­ble character.

The town of Wick whe­re Pul­te­ney Distil­lery was estab­lished in 1826, was once a busy her­ring fishing port with as many as 1,000 ves­sels in its har­bour at peak times. In-kee­ping with Old Pulteney’s mari­ti­me heri­ta­ge, the 1990 Vin­ta­ge is pre­sen­ted in a tube fea­turing a ship decking effect, a port­ho­le stamp and Old Pulteney’s clas­sic her­ring drifter.

Old Pul­te­ney Seni­or Brand Mana­ger, Mar­ga­ret Mary Clar­ke commented:

“After a very exci­ting year for the brand, which included a glo­bal part­ner­ship with Clip­per Round the World Race, it’s gre­at to finish off 2013 by adding a very spe­cial expres­si­on to our award-win­ning port­fo­lio. With its eye cat­ching mari­ti­me design and rich inten­se tas­te, we are con­fi­dent that the 1990 Vin­ta­ge will be a hit with glo­bal whis­ky connoisseurs.”
