Description

This is the oldest ever official release of whisky from the Old Pulteney distillery in Wick, aged for a full 40 years in three sherry casks and a single bourbon barrel (all of which were filled in 1968). It was bottled at natural cask strength and the result is glorious. Bottle 209/493. Having only filled 493 bottles of this, it is very rare. I do not think many people know these bottles are numbered. It's very subtle. If you have one of these, have you ever found it? Extremely collectible.
