Old Pulteney Unveils 17 Year Old to International Audience.

15/12/2004

Old Pulteney Single Malt Scotch Whisky - also known as the Genuine Maritime Malt - has unveiled its latest limited edition special reserve at the prestigious TFWA (Tax Free World Association) Exhibition, which took place at Palais des Festivals, Cannes in October.

A 17 year old Single Malt line extension has been added to Old Pulteney's collection and was showcased at the 20th TFWA exhibition, an annual show that highlights the international duty free and travel retail trade and acts as an important forum for the industry.

Parent company Inver House Distillers has produced an exceptional non-chill filtered variation that has a distinctive red amber colour, a sweet, fruity nose and a 'woodiness' tinged with butterscotch. Full-bodied with vanilla and floral overtones and a long-lasting finish, Old Pulteney 17 year old's memorable taste is set to give whisky lovers a rare treat, with only 700 cases of six bottles having been produced initially.

Old Pulteney Brand Manager, Margaret Mary Timpson said: "We first showcased Old Pulteney 17 year old at the TFWA exhibition in Cannes, which was the perfect platform for its launch. It received an incredible reaction from the international audience there. The 17 year old's character and flavour is distinctive and complements the whisky's existing range, which is gaining in popularity all the time. We're confident that the launch of our latest extension will increase the solid, increasing appreciation that enthusiasts have for Old Pulteney."
