Tasting Notes

Colour

Dark gold with radiant bronze highlights.

Nose

Powerful and deeply expressive, with a vibrant saline character shaped by the coastal sea air. Fragrant floral notes intertwine with ripe orchard fruits, revealing layers of cask char, plum preserve, green apple, and velvety vanilla. The palate evokes freshly toasted brioche lavishly spread with citrus marmalade, while a subtle nuance of fine leather lends elegance and complexity.

Palate

Wonderfully dry and refined, with a subtle salinity shaped by the coastal air and a whisper of cracked pepper. Rich cask char forms the foundation, revealing successive layers of toffee apple, fragrant cardamom, clove spice, and sweet cured tobacco. Complex and deeply rewarding, it culminates in a whisky of remarkable depth and enduring maritime character.

Finish

The finish unfolds with the gentle surge of the tide – dry at first, then revealing sweet vanilla.

Old Pulteney
(Old PULT-nee) Old Pulteney was founded in 1826 by James Henderson in Wick, during the height of the town’s herring boom, and for a time it was the most northerly distillery on mainland Scotland. Its history includes a long silent period after Wick voted to go dry under the Temperance Act: the distillery closed in 1930, prohibition in the town ended in 1947, and production eventually resumed in 1951. Later milestones include a major refurbishment in 1958, Inver House Distillers taking ownership in 1995, and the release of the now-iconic Old Pulteney 12 Year Old in 1997.
