[QUOTE="Puff Daddy, post: 213722, member: 3"] Just finished off a bottle of Old Pulteney, which turned out to be the opposite experience I had with The Macallan - I expected to really like The Macallan and didn't, expected to be less than thrilled with Old Pulteney but turns out it's really an excellent malt. I spent quite a number of evenings wondering what it was about this stuff that was so satisfying, and last night it came to me - Umami. Certain malts have that umami characteristic where there's a meaty, substantial and satisfying body accompanied by a saltiness or some other mouth watering characteristic. Umami in a bottle, Old Pulteney. Wonder if it would go with a good miso soup or if that would be overkill?...... [/QUOTE]
