The Genuine Maritime Malt, Old Pulteney – has unveiled an brand new product created specifically for World Duty Free.

A limited edition ‘pairing’ of Old Pulteney has been specially produced to appeal to the travel sector, ahead of the Tax Free World Association (TFWA) World Exhibition in Cannes this October. Two 23 year old whiskies, one matured in ex-bourbon casks and the other wholly ex-sherry, are now exclusively on sale in airports around the world.

Chosen by Distillery Manager, Malcolm Waring, this is the first time that parent company, Inver House Distillers has presented any of its whiskies in this way; contrasting same-year, different-cask Old Pulteney to illustrate the influence of cask selection on maturation, impact on flavour and the ability of distinct elements to create unique malts.

“This new release is part of our ongoing ambition to keep introducing new and interesting expressions of Old Pulteney. One of our main focuses, as we continue to expand the Old Pulteney range, is to encourage consumers to try different ways of experiencing our whisky” - Iain Baxter, Brand Manager of Old Pulteney

Designed to complement one another but also to be stand-alone products, both Old Pulteney 23 year olds is packaged in a crafted and lined wooded box with 8-page booklet explaining the influence of wood on whisky maturation.

Both Old Pulteney 23 year olds will be showcased at the TFWA World Exhibition in Cannes from 22-26 October
