Living Souls

Pulteney 16 Years Old Living Souls

ABV: 54% 70 cL

This single malt was distilled at Pulteney Distillery in the harbour town of Wick, Caithness, on the far north-east coast of the Scottish Highlands. Pulteney is known for its coastal, maritime spirit.

Bottled by independent bottler Living Souls, this 16-year-old was matured in Pinot Noir casks. Living Souls pairs each release with a scene, and for this one it is a grand hotel overlooking the rugged northern coast, with dessert served as the sun sets over the wild sea.

Pairing Pulteney's coastal spirit with red wine oak gives a richer, more indulgent dram than the distillery's usual style. Living Souls describes it as decadent, rich and honeyed.

Aged 16 years and bottled at 54% ABV, with natural colour and no chill filtration. 70cl.

Nose

Sherry trifle, sultanas, fruit cake, heather honey and dried strawberries.

Palate

Marmalade, maple syrup, coffee cake, burnt sugar and dark chocolate.

Finish

Rich and honeyed, slightly dry with notes of raisin and cocoa.

£84.00

Old Pulteney Distillery, founded in 1826 in the coastal town of Wick in Caithness, is one of Scotland’s most northerly mainland distilleries and is famously known as “The Maritime Malt” for its strong connection to the North Sea. Historically accessible only by sea, the distillery grew alongside Wick’s herring industry, with whisky and supplies transported by boat. Its spirit is shaped by distinctive stills with large boil balls, traditional worm tub condensers, and maturation in a cool, salty coastal climate, which together contribute to a character that is lightly briny, sweet, malty, and gently fruity. Now owned by Inver House Distillers, Old Pulteney is celebrated for producing elegant single malts that balance maritime freshness with honeyed richness and subtle spice.
