Welcome to Old Pulteney Distillery
Nestled on the rugged coast of the Scottish Highlands, Old Pulteney Distillery has been producing exceptional whisky since 1826. Known for its maritime influence, the distillery crafts a range of whiskies with a distinct character, shaped by the unique environment of the far north.
Our Story
Old Pulteney’s legacy is rooted in the history of Wick, a small town once known for its thriving herring industry. It is this coastal heritage that has inspired the distillery’s whiskies, known for their complexity and richness. The distillery’s location by the sea, with its salty breeze and harsh conditions, plays a key role in the maturation process, lending Old Pulteney’s whiskies their signature maritime character.
Our Whisky
Old Pulteney whiskies are crafted using traditional methods passed down through generations. Each bottle is a tribute to our heritage, offering a range of flavours from rich and fruity to peaty and smoky, all with a touch of the sea. The use of local ingredients and pure Highland water ensures that every dram is of the highest quality.
