The History of the Pintail Brand
PINTAIL was first bottled in 1931 as Matthew Gloag & Sonâs house brand of Dry Sherry and soon won international awards for its superior quality.
Featured in Tatler magazine in 1935 ââYou cannot be wrong in offering a glass of âPintailâ to your guest for the little â11 oâclockâ and before or after mealsâ. It was regularly advertised in Matthew Gloag & Sonâs Christmas brochure alongside the increasingly popular âFamous Grouseâ brand of Scotch Whisky as part of their âCase de Luxeâ offering.
Unfortunately, the downturn in Sherry consumption in the latter half of the 20thcentury signalled the end for the brand ⊠until The Whisky Cellar acquired the rights in 2021, lining it up once again with its old âBrig Oâ Perthâ stablemate.
