The new Old Pulteney Pineau Des Charentes is the best kind of example of an unusual cask really working well with the spirit.

Neither dominates, and that's why it works.

Now that you've tried it alongside both the wine used to season the cask and our definitive expression, what's the verdict on Old Pulteney Pineau des Charentes?

When we look at these drams side by side we find it fascinating that the broad, intense, waxy and coastal base we associate with Old Pulteney is so clear in both drams. But that's perhaps where the similarities end... :)

As you can see we also provided a dram of Old Pulteney 12 Years Old. It's a classic which defines what Old Pulteney is, an inimitable, ever-reliable reference point.

What do you think about the idea to mature Old Pulteney in some exceptional casks matured - like our whisky - by the coast?

Old Pulteney Pineaut des Charentes spent around half of its maturation time in American oak to develop rich vanilla and spicy character and second half in the PdC-seasoned French oak for excptional sweetness, fruitiness and freshness.

We used both white and red Pineau des Charentes casks in the making of our limited release Single Malt. Both kinds made from French oak.

The first in the series is Old Pulteney Pineau des Charentes, which has been matured in ex-Pineau des Charentes casks, an iconic aperitif native to the Charente-Maritime region
