Not only is Old Pulteney the most northern distillery of Scotland (Orkneys excepted), but the distillery has many other reasons to capture the mind of the malt aficionados…


Property of Allied Domecq, Old Pulteney was purchased at the end of the last century by Inver House, who wishes to focus on the twelve-year old version, even if the malt is also greatly appreciated by blenders.


This change of ownership was followed by refurbishments and renovations works, but this never changed the true style of the distillery. The wide, bellying and imposing stills are developing into an intricate pipe system, distributing the precious distillate through copper spirals and curves.


Is this why Old Pulteney is so fascinating and so richly aromatic? The peat is there, a hint or a scoop of it depending on the bottling, together with cereals, sherry sometimes, for some blends. But let’s not forget the sea, everywhere from the nose to the glass, through its salty and iodized accent of rare strength.

Nose: Rich and complex, combining candied fruit and herbaceous notes with an earthy, subtly woody touch. A hint of delicate spices balances the whole.

Palate: Powerful and structured, with assertive minerality, tangy fruit, honey and fresh herbs.

Finish: Precise and straightforward, marked by invigorating freshness and notes of ginger, nutmeg and subtle salinity.
