Old Pulteney Single Malt Scotch Whisky has released its eagerly anticipated 1990 Vintage Cask Travel Retail Exclusive in partnership with World Duty Free and Heathrow Airport. The limited expression is available to purchase exclusively in World of Whiskies and World Duty Free stores in all terminals at Heathrow as part of a dedicated in-store activation until January 2018.<\/p>\n


\nTaking you on a historical journey of Old Pulteney, this exquisite Vintage tells a tale of craftsmanship and dedication, dating back over a quarter of a century. This full-bodied spirit began its story in American oak ex-bourbon casks, developing its characteristically complex nature, before moving to Spanish oak where it became richer, darker and adopted a sweetness with hints of spice. The unique expression finished with a brief spell in casks which previously held heavily peated whisky – providing a unique smoky final flourish for this powerful Maritime Malt.<\/p>\n

Glimmering bronze in colour, the 26 Year Old 1990 Vintage Cask has an aroma of spice, vanilla, toffee and sweet honey, balanced by a thin veil of warming wood smoke and oak. Bitter orange marmalade and caramel apples soon follow on the nose to create a long-lasting sensory experience for this exquisite and complex dram.<\/p>\n

Rich in mouth feel and intense in flavour, the palate opens up with strong praline and sultana sweetness on a thick bed of warm, savoury smoke. Citrus strikes the top note with hints of vanilla lingering in the background, giving a finish, which is long and smoky.<\/p>\n

James Bateman, Director, Global Travel Retail at International Beverage commented: \u201cWe\u2019re very excited about the exceptional new Old Pulteney 1990 we\u2019re releasing exclusively with World Duty Free for Heathrow airport. We\u2019re looking forward to giving Heathrow travellers something special to pick up and enjoy at their journey\u2019s end.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nigel Sandals, Liquor Category Buying Manager UK at Dufry continues, \u201cCustomers in our World Duty Free and World of Whiskies stores are always looking for something a little different \u2013 collectors and connoisseurs want to add something unique to their collection, whilst many travellers are looking to purchase whisky as a special gift. The Old Pulteney Single Malt 1990 Vintage Cask is an exclusive and outstanding whisky and we\u2019re delighted to have been able to work with closely with our partners at International Beverage, to make this exclusive whisky available to our customers\u201d.<\/p>\n
