International Beverage USA has announced that they have virtually run out of Old Pulteney 21-Year-Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky in the United States. Demand for the premium whisky skyrocketed after it received Jim Murray’s “World Whisky of the Year” Award in his definitive 2012 Whisky Bible.
According to Master Distiller Malcolm Waring, when it comes to distilling the 21-year-old single malt, there’s no rushing it. “No matter how many hours we work into the night, we simply cannot make the whisky age any faster until it’s fully matured to perfection. Anyone who has tasted Old Pulteney knows it is worth the wait.”
Pat Graney, International Beverage U.S. President, expects the next batch to be available in the United States in March 2012. “We knew Old Pulteney 21-Year-Old was a standout product, but we never dreamed it would literally run out. The award is a testament to our product’s quality and to American consumers’ growing appreciation of fine single malt scotch.”
Old Pulteney has a long standing association with the sea and is known as the “Maritime Malt.” Crafted in the most northerly distillery in Scotland, this golden single malt offers a sweet, fruity taste with hints of honey and vanilla. Its carefully formulated taste carries the windswept and rugged character of the North and salty, fresh air of the North Sea. The distillery’s rich heritage runs through every drop of the whisky.
