Events | Stories of the Sea:

The Old Pulteney "Stories of the Sea" events aim to capture the spirit and romance of maritime adventure. With six events featuring different speakers across various locations in the UK, the evenings consist of Old Pulteney combining a whisky tasting with inspiring speakers telling their ‘story of the sea’.

The sea is a magical and mystical thing and the stories involved are countless. With ‘Stories of the Sea’ we are hoping to bring a few of the best stories told by great adventurers and explorers, closer to the public.
