Vintage Summer Whiskies From Balblair – Scotch Whisky News

Balblair 2003

VINTAGE Summer Whiskies

Just as nature nudges us from warming stews to zesty salads, or snug cashmere scarves to cool cotton chinos, so too she encourages a refreshing gear change in our drinks repertoire.

Take a trip to Scotland in December and it doesn’t take a great stretch of the imagination to see why whisky caught on so successfully in this part of the world. This is a drink whose entire image is evocatively intertwined with roaring fires, cigars and cosy tartan interiors. You can almost hear the wind whistling outside.

But that doesn’t mean you should hide your single malt collection away as soon as the daffodils start to poke through.

Old Pulteney “Crafting the fine Single Malt in your glass” – Scotch Whisky News

Whisky Making Process

Crafting the fine Single Malt in your glass.

At Old Pulteney we love all of our fans. Those who enjoy the occasional glass by the fire on a long winter’s night, never sparing it a second thought, and those dedicated individuals who relentlessly seek out ever more information about their favourite drink, the true aficionados.

It’s the latter, the enthusiasts, who often ask us questions so detailed it amazes us how much they know about the process. A lot of these questions relate to whisky production methods of course and the equipment we use. So with this thirst for whisky knowlege in mind it is for the true Old Pulteney aficionados that we have created our latest blog post, detailing everything from the capacity of our Washbacks to the duration of our Fermentation.

Robbie’s Whisky Merchants Non-Auction – Scotch Whisky News

Robbie's Whisky Merchants Non-Auction

Good Afternoon,

Hope you are all well.

I have attached a link to a brand-new section of our website that you may find interesting, simply click the above badge to have a look.

The “Non-Auction” is a section dedicated to rare, collectible and unusual bottles that are more commonly found as a result of trawling through auction sites or indeed auction houses. Many people are under the impression that auctions are always the best place to purchase rare bottles however this is not true. Of course, auctions are a great place to find unusual products, of that there is no doubt. However with auctions you have the issue of additional buyers/sellers fees as well as the fact that the products are being handled by a third party which increases the likelihood of damage.

To celebrate the launch of the Non-Auction, we are offering free delivery (standard – 3 working days) on orders within Mainland UK. To make use of this offer, please use the discount code “NONAUCT” upon checkout.

Kind Regards,
Robin Russell
