Old Pulteney 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky – 70cl
From Scotland's most northerly coastal distillery — and the only distillery in the world to have its product banned by its own town. Old Pulteney was founded in 1826 in the fishing port of Wick, Caithness, a community so reliant on the herring industry that alcohol was banned by the town council — leading to the almost unthinkable situation of a distillery producing whisky in a dry town. Today the ban is long lifted and Old Pulteney stands as one of the most characterful and distinctive maritime single malts in Scotland — the salty North Sea air permeating its warehouses giving every expression a characteristic briny freshness and coastal depth quite unlike any inland Highland distillery. Non-chill filtered, natural colour. Available to buy online in Singapore from The Liquid Collection. The 12 Year Old is matured in ex-bourbon casks and — the entry point to the range and the ideal introduction to Old Pulteney's celebrated maritime character.
