The Pulteney Distillery is one of the most northerly distilleries of the Scottish mainland. Named after the governor in those days from the British fishing company Sir William Johnstone Pulteney, the distillery was founded by James Henderson in 1826. The distillery was reaching only from the sea at this time. The salty sea air of his Scottish hometown stamp the taste of this whisky.
