For many years, Pulteney held the title of the northernmost Scottish distillery on the mainland.
However, in 2013, after a 163-year hiatus, she resumed distillation at Wolfburn Distillery and stripped her of that honor. The Pulteney distillery, based in Wick, began operation in 1826. Its name refers to Sir William Pulteney, who in 1810 made Wick a model fishing port. Since 1995, the plant has been owned by Inver House Distillers, which in turn has been part of the Thai conglomerate Pacific Spirits since 2001. Old Pulteney 12 years old debuted in 1997 and still occupies a key place in the company’s basic offer. In 2015, he won a silver medal at the International Wine & Spirit Competition.

PRODUCENT - Whisky
The whiskey most likely comes from Ireland. Irish monks were making a liquor known as aqua vitae (the Gaelic name uisge beatha is a translation from Latin) as early as the 7th century. It was a mixture obtained by distillation of fruit fermentation products and used exclusively for medicinal purposes as a means of prolonging life, relieving some ailments (such as colic) and diseases (paralysis, smallpox and others). According to legend, whiskey was invented by St. Patrick. From the 17th century, the shortened form uiskie began to be used, and from around 1715 the name took the form of whiskie. The modern name - whiskey - was established only in 1736. Only high-quality glass is used in professional whiskey tastings. The so-called popular tulip glasses, the shape of which allows you to retain the aroma of whiskey, which is important during tasting. During the tasting, apart from the smell, the taste on the tongue, the finish and the balance of the whole are also assessed, often on a scale of 100 points. The whiskey served may be slightly diluted with water, which reduces the intensity of the flavor. It is also popular to serve whiskey with ice (on the rocks) or with cola, but the latter can be controversial.
