Founded in 1826 by James Henderson, the distillery is the beating heart of the eponymous hamlet renowned both for its whiskies and for the quality of its excellent herrings. The uniqueness of this distillery lies in the use of wash stills lacking the classic swan neck. Legend has it that once delivered they were too tall for the distillation room so that the owner was forced to cut off the top. The shape of the bottle is a clear homage to this story.
Old Pulteney is a single malt that with every sip recalls the life lived between the sea and the harbor in the old town. The distillery, one of the northernmost in the British peninsula, uses water from Hempriggs Loch and uses only unpeat barley malt for its single malts.
Classic Highland single malt matured for 12 years in ex-bourbon barrels. Handcrafted using techniques that other distilleries have now abandoned, it has won numerous gold medals at the most prestigious international competitions.
