About the distillery

Old Pulteney is deeply associated with Scotland’s far northern maritime identity, historically shaped by the fishing port of Wick that surrounds the distillery. Its whiskies often display coastal salinity, light spice and a dry, slightly mineral structure that reflects its seaside maturation environment. The brand has long marketed itself as ‘The Maritime Malt,’ a positioning that aligns closely with the whisky’s character.
