Old Pulteney 15 Year Old
A Maritime Malt with sherried depth
Old Pulteney 15 Year Old is where the distillery's coastal character meets deep, rounded maturity. Long ageing adds dried fruit, spice and a creamy richness, while a subtle briny note keeps it fresh. It is a fine choice for experienced malt drinkers and a rewarding step up from younger expressions.
About Old Pulteney
Old Pulteney is distilled in Wick, on the Caithness coast, at one of the most northerly distilleries on the Scottish mainland. The sea air and cool coastal climate are said to shape the whisky's character, and that maritime identity runs through the whole range.
