Pulteney Distillery

The spirit of Old Pulteney is inseparable from the spirit of the town it calls home - Wick.

Steeped in history

Wick was once known as the herring capital of Europe. Yet while the herring shoals may be long gone from this rugged northern coastline, the spirit of that seafaring past lives on in the form of Old Pulteney Single Malt Scotch Whisky - long renowned as The Maritime Malt.

One of Scotland’s most northerly mainland distilleries

With a history stretching back to 1826, Pulteney Distillery lies at the heart of its Wick hometown. One of Scotland’s most northerly mainland distilleries, it has been characterised by a spirit of endurance down the centuries - a spirit embodied by the unique malt whisky with which it has been so long synonymous.

Distillery Team

The enduring and ever-growing popularity of Old Pulteney Single Malt Scotch Whisky is testimony to the team who bring it to life. Led by Distillery Manager Malcolm Waring, their invaluable experience is reflected by the energy, pride and passion with which they go about their work.

Distillery Visitor Centre

To step inside Pulteney Distillery is to be at once aware of its captivating heritage and personality - and there’s no better way of getting to know it better than by joining one of our behind-the-scenes tours. Choose from our range of available tours to ensure your visit lingers long in the memory.

Whisky Stills

The talking point of any Pulteney Distillery tour is our stillroom. Unlike no other, it features a wash still which defies convention and a spirit still with its own distinct personality. See them for yourself - and hear the tales behind them - when you pay us a visit.

On-site Maturation

Matured on site, Old Pulteney is often said to carry a suggestion of Caithness coastal air thanks to its years spent in our traditional dunnage warehouses - and you can stroll among our extensive array of hand-selected oak casks as part of a distillery tour.

A Momento to Cherish

Set the seal on a visit to Pulteney Distillery by purchasing your own hand-filled bottle of our award-winning whisky from our cask collection. Specially selected by our Distillery Manager.
