Bladnoch Alinta Lowland Single Malt Whisky 47%
Bladnoch's Master Distiller hand selects every cask to bring together this peated expression. It has a nose of smoky ice cream and delicate floral notes with sweet oak while the palate is reminiscent of campfire smoke, almonds, raisins and white chocolate. Alinta has been aged in Pedro Ximenez and ex-bourbon casks.
Old Pulteney 15 Year Old
Old Pulteney 15 Year Old is a perfectly balanced Highland single malt, matured for fifteen years to marry richness and refinement. This whisky reflects the dual nature of its coastal home, combining indulgent, warming flavours with lighter, refreshing maritime notes that define The Maritime Malt. Initially aged in second-fill American oak ex-bourbon casks, it develops rich, dark spices before a finishing period in first-fill Spanish oak casks enhances chocolate, dried fruit and subtle sweetness. Distilled and matured by the sea on the Caithness coast, it absorbs the brisk, salty air year after year, giving this expression its distinctive coastal character. In the glass, Old Pulteney 15 Year Old is a rich amber colour. The nose is intense yet balanced, bursting with dried fruit, ripe apples, citrus, honey and creamy vanilla, with subtle chocolate and floral undertones. On the palate, fragrant spices and Christmas cake mingle with layers of chocolate and dark toffee, while a hint of sea air lingers on the long, elegant finish. Award-winning and widely praised, Old Pulteney 15 Year Old has received Double Gold at the 2023 International Spirits Challenge, Gold at the 2022 IWSC with 95 points, and Silver at the 2023 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. This expression is ideal for those seeking a sophisticated, balanced single malt that highlights the unique influence of the Highland coast.
