Springbank Distillery

Springbank Distillery is one of the main visitor attractions in Campbeltown, Kintyre. It is one of three distilleries remaining in Campbeltown which, in the 19th century, was classed as 'The Whisky Capital of the World'. Established in 1828, Springbank is the oldest independent family owned distillery in Scotland and is the only distillery in Scotland to carry out the full production process on one site - from the traditional floor maltings through to the bottling.

Glen Scotia Distillery

Reviewed By suzzytravels - Darlington, United Kingdom

Myself and some friends went on a tour and whisky tasting here and had a blast. The tour guide was funny and informative, answering all our questions about the local area and the whisky making process. The building is tastefully decorated and kitted out so it feels modern and old fashioned all at once and the whisky we tasted at the end was so delicious I bought a bottle of the Victoriana to take home as well as a bottle of Double Cask for my parents, which they thoroughly appreciated as part of their Anniversary present. If I come back to Kintyre I will definitely be visiting Glen Scotia again.

Hebridean Smokehouse

Reviewed By ChazBroon - South Ayrshire, United Kingdom

Delicious peat smoked salmon & pate we will be calling in again for some more while we are here in North Uist. This is so fresh & tasty and a must to buy when visiting this area. We will definitely be calling in for more and will try the scallops the next time as I have heard so much about them. Also sells local gifts and crafts. Lovely wee shop.
