Whisky from Scotland’s northernmost shores

Old Pulteney is distilled in the historic port of Wick in the North Highlands. Here, the sea plays a crucial role in the character of the whisky. The salty sea air and harsh climate influence the maturation and give the whisky its distinctive maritime character.

This edition in the Coastal Series receives a final maturation in port casks, adding extra depth, fruitiness and an elegant sweetness. Together with the distillery’s classic style, it creates a whisky that is both complex and harmonious.

Bottled at 46% alcohol, the whisky retains its natural richness and character, making it an ideal dram for enthusiasts and collectors alike who want a whisky with a distinct personality.

The story of Old Pulteney

The name Pulteney is closely linked to the history of the town of Wick, which in the 1800s became the center of Europe’s largest herring fishery. Sir William Pulteney was a central figure in the development of the town, and as the fishing boom grew, so did the need for a local distillery.

The Old Pulteney Distillery was founded in 1826 and has been part of the area’s maritime identity ever since. Even through challenging periods – including a long period of prohibition – the distillery has maintained its tradition and character.

The close connection to the sea means that the whisky develops a distinct style during maturation. The combination of coastal climate, craftsmanship and tradition gives Old Pulteney a unique profile that has made the distillery famous among whisky lovers worldwide.
