We’ll be joined by Inver House Distillers Sprits Ambassador Stuart Baxter who will guide us through each dram and talk us through the history of the Pulteney Distillery and their unique whisky making process. Stuart has a vast amount of knowledge in the whisky industry which he has gained from working at Gleneagles Hotel, Chivas Brothers as a Brand Ambassador, Brand Ambassador for Douglas Laing & Co. and also as the Spirits Ambassador for Inver House Distillers.
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. At a time when road links to the town were yet to be established, the distillery was dependent on the sea for its supply of barley and for the shipping out of its malt whisky. Wick became known for the barrels of silver (herring) and gold (whisky) which left the port in vast numbers. The distillery itself has an absorbing history, with its unique 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.
