Old Pulteney Noss Head

Nose: Light and fresh, citrus fruits & apples, with cereal notes. Also a vague hint of something ”industrial”, which is hard to pin-point, but not unplessant -> Characterfull. Touch of vanilla. Palate: Spirit driven (young) and again fresh. Milky Almonds, apples (or perhaps pears?), and a sweetness well balanced by some salty bitter (but not oaky) undertones. Finish: The almonds turn into milk chocholate, but with a certain freshness. Medium-long. Like it. Overall: Great combination of being light, but yet characterfull. Great when yor not in the mood for a dark complex aged whisky, but still don’t want a ”meh” experience. I just killed my bottle an I may very well pick up a new one next time I travel. Solid 3.75 and very close to an even higher mark.

Vanilla, caramel and green apple on the nose. On the palate it's smooth with a lot of raw wood flavor, grass, caramel. Pretty sweet. Finish is a bit atomic with caramel dominating. 30 seconds and it's gone.

The pale color belies the deep and complex flavor of this single malt. Aged in old bourbon barrels, this “maritime malt” is both spicy and sweet. Very enjoyable neat.

Sweet an citrus on the nose. Briny too. Taste with light spices, apples, pear, and a lot of fresh lemon peels and grassy notes. aftertaste chocolate, caramel.

Touch of lavender and fabric softener on the nose, with coffee roast and green tea on the palate. Texture is oily with a spicy finish. It's not bad.

this dram is really in Pulteney style - fresh, sea salt, lemon, sweet vanila. I'm assume it's a bit young but very good balanced and enjoyable dram.
