Sea, stones and whisky |
Stafford Street Glasgow, Argyll PA34 5NH United Kingdom +44 163 157 2004 |
Oban is the town where the Highlands meet the islands, and it's one of Scotland's oldest sources of malt whisky. Visitors are welcome to watch the distillers at work and to sample their peaty 14 year old single malt with its distinctive whiff of the sea. The distillery dates from 1794 and is nestled at the foot of a cliff, directly opposite the North Pier. The last guided tour starts an hour before closing and the cost is redeemable against purchases in the shop. Admission: adults £3.50 Review © 2007, Wcities |
