I love this scotch. It is delightfully delicate but surprisingly complex. I find that each taste in the dram is different. Usually, the first taste has the most maritime flavor and spice, and the final taste is the sweetest which makes a great end to a drink journey. This is an excellent scotch to give friends who have been scared off of scotch because of the peat flavors, and shows a complete alternative to what scotch can be. Sadly it is moderately difficult to find in the US. There is only one store in my entire state that stocks it. Love this one, totally underrated.

I’m 34 years old, a whiskey beginner, and loving the journey so far. Coincidentally Old Puteny was my second whisky. My first was the 9 year Lagavulin; a Smokey, mild to moderately peaty whisky. When I tried the OP 12, I gained some understanding of the depth in variety of single malts. It tasted great. Next I’m opening the JW green label blended malt. I’ve got a feeling I’m going to enjoy this hobby. Any recommendations are more than welcome. Cheers/prost!

I'm a 32 year old whiskey beginner so we're on the same page! How's your journey going now that you're 5 months in? I'm loving the Buffalo Trace bourbon, the Aerstone Sea Cask single malt and the Glenfiddich 12 year single malt :) Oh, and special mention for Monkey Shoulder which I really enjoyed!

[@rishabhsaluja4921]

Truly legendary. I personally taste the whiskey, make notes and then come to their videos for evaluating my palate.

[@KevinoftheCosmos]

I just had a bottle of this recently. It wasn't my favorite, but it didn't last very long either. Very good for the price.

[@jacoplindholm78]

Old pulteney always finds a way to bring the sea air to there whiskys. I really love drinking there product more then others

[@kurtjohnson3215]

It is a staple in my collection. Great whiskey for the price. Nice notes of Salt, citrus or apricots and caramel.

[@robertforrester4019]

I agree , it's a great everyday sip. The end of it I get a little of that sea salt, very unique. Cheers from northern indiana usa

[@bblair2627]

a classic supermarket malt - superb dram

[@karadordarkraven]

I find OP a great beginers Whiskey, still one of my faves!

[@nickvaughan8100]

Old pulteney and tailsker 10 my favourites..

[@CigarsEuropeTV]

About time you guys make your own family blend malt!

[@roccodimiccio5199]

they should def to an independent bottling or a blend

[@raeraeraeth]

I got some recently to take a chance on something strange. On the nose I get dried mealworms and soy sauce, and to taste it's like very old salted licorice with seaweed crackers. Very strong, pungent, mealy, umami, salty, to the point my senses shout 'you should not be drinking this'. I don't get any freshness or fruitiness other people seem to describe. Did I get a duff bottle?

[@daninthepan]

Love the nose on it: beautiful sea spray but not overpowering then caramel or some other sweetness creeps in to surprise you. The taste doesn't dissappoint, wonderful long spicy aftertaste. Bang for the buck it's way up there.

[@TheRetroTaco]

Great video, thanks for sharing your opinions. I will definitely try this whisky 😁

[@johnny1873]

Do you (or anyone here) know any other whisky of a similar kind as Old Pulteney? This was one of the first whiskys I ever bought, and I have still not found anything quite like it (either on the nose ore the palete). Especially the nose on this is really nice! I know this is only bourbon barells, so another whisky with no sherry cask and low levels of sweetness is what I´m looking for I guess (I have many good sweeter whiskys). Perhaps something like this but with a bit stronger taste? Any tips?

[@garypell3432]

I, too, have never encountered anything remotely similar to the Old Pulteney. It’s really amazing!

[@garypell3432]

Shackleton! It has the sea spray thingee going on, but the sweetness is more brown sugar than fruity/floral.

[@gustavjansson6499]

Im gonna pick up a bottle of the deligthful one tomorrow, one of my many top whiskys😋😀

[@izzybee2705]

Reminds me of Rum Appleton 12yrs old. I love it.

[@HistoryNiche]

This or highland park 10 my next purchase at Morrisons.

[@iancrombie8862]

£24 in some Supermarkets right now...do not panic buy!!😯🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃

[@Felixxu1]

Got one of this, lot of honey on the nose, sea, salty tast. very easy to dring. smonth. If you take it neat, not as complex flavor, not enough punch, gets better with a few drops of water. interesting to try, but might not buy again.

[@HiImAlan123]

Just picked up a bottle of this, cant wait to indulge 🥃

[@Whiskycom]

Enjoy!

[@dutchomatic]

Clan Sinclair whisky. Get some. Yummy. Great with shellfish and seafood in general.

[@trhoads07]

Is it the camera angle , Ben's glass looks slightly different than Horst's glass.

[@tzsteve33]

The older bottling at 43% far out shone this version. Still a nice dram though

[@jacoplindholm78]

I agree. But the new one rocks. But that says all about the older one. Im happy to say i have an unopened bottle at home

[@TripleBerg]

Still a good buy. If you can find 17 yo it is worth picking up.

[@nickvaughan8100]

Try putting some in the glass..

[@drkukla77]

Try indian solan no.1 whisky .....cheap but good

[@dylangaradyn6734]

Good balance but a little light to me

[@gibec8252]

Old pulteney 12 is a okay beginner whiskey for its easy drinking attributes. For intermediate to veteran enthusiasts i wouldnt recommend. Imo the palate was a bit watery and dull. Was expecting a bit more depth, but it is a 33 dollar whiskey. It was pleasant, but not n e thing to write home about.

[@TheYogicAlchemist]

Complex notes ..Water ..kinda oily .fruity hmmm...sea breeze notes ..kinda dry too..

[@scottdog6662]

Every supermarket in England

[@tbonemillz]

Why does Horst always pour himself more than Ben? 🤔

[@craigd123]

Because he's a boss

[@ChaosAI24]

Everything great in nose, in taste is just ruined by old casks used, that aftertaste bitterness, tannins, absolutely ruins it. It's a pity because the initial taste is wonderful.
