A Highland Scotch with Islay aspirations. This malt has the underlying tones for a traditional Bowmore Scotch without the "in your face" characteristics of a truly Islay.The saltiness and medicinal characteristics are toned down, and one can enjoy the blending of the regions without commiting to either. For the single malt beginner, Old Pulteney offers the best of both worlds at a reasonable price.

I agree with your conclusion; this is a very good entry point for single malt Scotch.
