Signatory Vintage Scotch Whisky was established in 1988 by Andrew Symington, who had previously managed the prestigious Prestonfield House Hotel in Edinburgh. In 2002 the firm acquired Edradour distillery from Pernod Ricard, and subsequently moved all of its operations north to the picturesque Perthshire location.

Founded in 1826 by James Henderson at the height of Wick’s celebrated herring boom, the Pulteney Distillery is one of the most northerly on the British mainland (Wolfburn currently has the mainland title). The distillery itself has an unique history, with its impressive stills defying convention to this day. The wash still, in particular, is a source of fascination to visitors due to the absence of a ‘swan neck’. Legend has it that when the still was delivered it was too tall for the still house and the manager simply decided to cut the top off! The Old Pulteney bottle now incorporates a bulbous neck to reflect the shape of the stills.

This Pulteney 12 year old single malt whisky is had a long 33 month finish in an ex-sherry butt giving lifted notes of pastry with rich stewed fruits, ginger spice and orange peel notes, alongside salted caramel and a subtle nutty note. 

700ml. 55.8% ABV.
