Whats your take on this Scotch, Just tried this today after my Balvenie double wood and Laphroaig. This Pulteney has definitely become a favorite of mine. It is very complex i find different flavors coming through each time i try it. It takes me back to living in Scotland and heading to the Cold, Windy, Rainy beach....."bliss" with a mix of some Toast and Butter in the Morning.
Buttery palate with a sea salt finish.

Whats your take on this wonderful scotch. I would also love to try the 21 year old, anyone have experience with this one. Reviews appreciated :)

Going back to finish this dram

This was my most recent malt, and tho' I tried mightily to make the bottle last, it was so tasty that I finished it off in one week. Mild and on the sweet/"floral" side, both for nose and taste. Very good indeed! (I had the 43% ABV version.)

Yes i also tried to make this one last, got 3 different bottles for my Bday. Only a quarter left. I taste the sweetness but not much floral, i will keep looking :)

I tried a bottle of Old Pulteney 12 a few months back and never could like it, but maybe I need to give it another try, especially at the price point.
