Product Description

Old Pulteney Twelve Years Old is a truly exceptional single malt Scotch whisky, crafted by the sea in the port town of Wick, Caithness, in Scotland’s far north. Known for its maritime character, this whisky is matured exclusively in American oak ex-bourbon casks, which impart subtle nuances of wood and a distinctive depth of flavour. The whisky’s unique character is further enhanced by the coastal environment, where the fresh sea air and briny winds influence the maturation process.

On the eye, Old Pulteney Twelve glimmers with a warm amber hue, transitioning into golden and copper tones as it catches the light. The nose greets you with intense waves of brine, toffee, and salty sea air—elements that recall the rugged coastline of Caithness. The palate opens with a delicate sweetness of honey and vanilla, balanced by the richness of spicy fruit, before fading into a faintly salty, long-lasting finish. This maritime malt delivers a truly complex and satisfying drinking experience.

With its combination of rich fruitiness, subtle spice, and the signature sea brine finish, Old Pulteney Twelve Years Old is a whisky that captures the essence of the Scottish coastline. At 40% ABV, it is smooth, yet full-bodied, making it perfect for sipping on its own or with a splash of water to unlock its full flavour profile.
