This single cask bottling of a 13-year-old Pulteney single malt was produced by the independent bottler Cadenhead as part of the Authentic Collection Cask Strength series. The whisky was distilled in 2006, matured in an ex-bourbon hogshead, and was bottled at cask strength in 2019 in a run of 306 bottles.
Pulteney is a distillery in the harbour town of Wick in the county of Caithness in Scotland, which was founded in 1826 by James Henderson. It remained in the family for about a hundred years, after which there were many changes of ownership and also closures. Formerly used exclusively for blends, under the current owner Inver House Distillers, there are various original bottlings under the name Old Pulteney.
Scotland and Scotch whisky is a global trend, a development that has led to a flourishing whisky scene in Scotland. There is hardly a week that goes by in which there is no news about another new distillery being built or the reopening of a distillery that has been closed for a long time.
Scotland, together with Ireland, is today considered the motherland of whisky, whose roots there go back to around 1500 AD.
