About the Distillery

Founded by James Henderson in 1826, Old Pulteney was established during Wick's boom years as one of Europe's busiest herring fishing ports. The distillery's proximity to the sea has become a defining feature of its whisky, with many expressions displaying subtle coastal notes, sea salt, and maritime freshness alongside rich fruit and oak influences.

The distinctive shape of Old Pulteney's copper pot stills, including the unusual "boil ball" still, contributes to the whisky's elegant and characterful spirit.
