New expressions set sail for the Maritime Malt
By Old Pulteney
We’re excited to embark on a new voyage with the launch of our new core collection featuring our flagship 12 Years Old, Huddart, 15 and 18 Y
Distilled and matured by the sea, Old Pulteney single malt Scotch whisky is the true maritime malt and we’re excited to embark on a new voyage with the launch of our new core collection featuring our flagship 12 Years Old, Huddart, 15 and 18 Years Old. This move marks a reinvigoration of the core range for our award-winning Caithness-based distillery, complemented by distinctive new design and packaging.
This new collection signals an evolution for our distillery, with a renewed vigour around the maritime malt yet staying true to Old Pulteney’s rich heritage and traditions.
- Huddart: Celebrating the birthplace of Old Pulteney, Huddart (ABV 46%) is rich gold in colour. A distinctively smoky take on its signature single malt scotch whiskies, Huddart is richly warming and combines influence from the salt-infused sea air with peat smoke, delivering a mellow and smoky whisky with real character, depth and identity. Discover more by visiting our Old Pulteney Huddart tasting notes.
- 15 Years Old: A naturally rich, amber-coloured whisky, the 15 Years Old expression (ABV 46%) is Old Pulteney’s most balanced and smoothest single malt whisky yet. Bursting with aromas of rich dried fruit, ripe apples and citrus, with honey sweetness and a generous chord of creamy vanilla, 15 Years Old effortlessly brings together two different sides of the flavour spectrum. Reveal tasting notes for Old Pulteney 15 Years Old.
- 18 Years Old: Completing the new portfolio, 18 Years Old (ABV 46%) takes its character and colour entirely from the American oak casks and Spanish sherry butts in which it has been nurtured, delivering a deep amber colour. This indulgent and deeply warming expression features notes of chocolate and spice, but allow for the influence of more vibrant, zesty flavours.

The new collection is complemented with the addition of the repackaged flagship Old Pulteney 12 Years Old.
- 12 Years Old: The golden-coloured 12 Years Old expression (ABV 40%) is the perfect place to start your Old Pulteney journey, with a flavour which is welcoming and effortless. 12 Years Old embodies the maritime malt characteristic that has become synonymous with Old Pulteney whiskies. It has been matured for 12 years in ex-bourbon casks, marrying together the salty flavours of the sea with the influence of American oak, to bring sweetness into play, and create a classic expression.
The collection of four whiskies also has a striking new design, which freshens up the overall look yet created around the existing, highly distinctive Old Pulteney bottle shape.
The collection will be available from 14th August 2018 in the UK with our preferred partners The Whisky Exchange, The Whisky Shop, Royal Mile Whiskies, Bin Ends & The Whisky Cellar and Sutherland Brothers, thereafter, there will be a phased global roll out.
