Second fill American oak, ex-bourbon casks, followed by a period of further maturation in first fill Spanish oak, ex-Oloroso casks. Intense and balanced. Bursting with rich dried fruit, ripe apples and citrus, with honey sweetness and a generous chord of creamy vanilla. Slightly chocolaty and floral in the background. Fragrant spices and Christmas cake, with layers of chocolate and a distinct dark toffee sweetness. There is a hint of sea air on the finish, a clear connection to Old Pulteney’s coastal home.
