Pulteney 13 Year Old Equinox and Solstice
Equinox & Solstice is a sub-label of Whisky Sponge who began life as a whisky blog (see http://whiskysponge.com) and now bottle some truly remarkable whiskies!
Pulteney (aka Old Pulteney) up in Wick has a huge fan base, and for good reason, producing some truly exceptional whisky!
This release from Decadent Drinks of Pulteney 13 year old scotch whisky in the Equinox and Solstice label by Decadent Drinks is a vatting of 3 casks, 1 refill barrel and 2 first fill casks. The whisky has an immense oiliness, almost waxiness that makes you stand up to attention. A wonderfully coastal nose that perhaps doesn't fully follow through to the palate. The grungy, damp funk on this bottling is ponderous, but also really enjoyable.
"Maybe not the most accessible or immediate Pulteney, that you’ll come across, but I quite liked that deviant nature." 7/10 Pulteney 13yo Equinox Solstice — DRAMFACE
