Old Pulteney Connoisseurs Choice Single Cask #1071 Whisky 19 Year Old · 1998 Vintage

Colour

Bright golden amber with warm honey hues and a sunlit, luminous glow.

Nose

Sea-salt air threads through a vanilla-bourbon glow, with caramel and honey embracing toasted oak. Zesty citrus lifts a creamy, coastal core, while maritime minerals and white pepper add a refined edge. Warm notes of almond and spice echo the bold first-fill bourbon, delivering a polished, ocean-kissed aroma that marks Old Pulteney’s maritime Highlands.

Palate

Vanilla, toffee and honey roll across the palate from the first-fill bourbon, backed by toasted oak and creamy barley. Salt-kissed coastal notes emerge with candied lemon zest and orange rind, while white pepper and gentle spice lift the mid-palate. At 57.5%, it's full, warm and richly textured, finishing with a maritime brine and citrus-touched sweetness that lingers.

Finish

Long, generous finish with creamy vanilla and caramel oak, lifted by soft spice. A hint of citrus zest appears, then a salted maritime echo that lingers warmly on the palate, carried by the bourbon sweetness and velvet texture.
