Summary

Old Pulteney Navigator is a single malt Scotch whisky that embodies the maritime heritage of its distillery. Crafted in the coastal town of Wick, Scotland, this whisky is a tribute to the seafaring traditions that have shaped its character. The Navigator is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks, which impart a unique complexity and depth to the spirit.

On the nose, this whisky offers a delightful bouquet of fresh sea air, mingled with hints of citrus and green apple. The maritime influence is evident, providing a briny undertone that complements the fruity aromas. As you take your first sip, the palate reveals a harmonious blend of sweet malt, vanilla, and a touch of oak, balanced by a subtle spiciness that adds an extra layer of intrigue.

The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of honey and a gentle warmth that invites you to take another sip. Old Pulteney Navigator is a versatile whisky that can be enjoyed neat, with a splash of water, or even in a classic whisky cocktail. Its well-rounded profile makes it an excellent choice for both novice and seasoned whisky drinkers alike.
