The Former Whisky Capital Of The World

[@MargaretHiltbrunn]

Campbeltown is my home, altho I'm an ex-pat now, living in USA. I grew up on the same street as Glen Scotia Distillery and walked past it 4 times a day going to and from school. The smell of the warm mash was wonderful.

Just found your little, beautiful documentation on on of my favourite whisky areas. Fantastic. Thank you very much. I plan to go to Campbeltown myself in a few years time. Cheers from Germany

So glad you enjoyed the episode! Thanks for taking the time and commenting and couldn’t agree more about Campbeltown being an amazing whisky area. Cheers, -Jeff

[@haikitmichaeltruong3358]

I'm going there in a few days, can't wait! Thank you so much for the informative video. Very interesting stuff indeed!

[@drinkdestinations]

Enjoy! So amazing and I’m jealous. Cheers 🥃

[@Brew5603]

Fantastic video. Was supposed to travel there last year... Hopefully will make it there one day

[@drinkdestinations]

It’s such a great town. When it’s low tide you can actually walk over to the island of Dvaar. But make sure your back before the water rises. We tried it, but ended up raining and tide was rising. Didnt want to swim back across hahaha. Cheers

So awesome! It’s an amazing place and I hear another distillery is being built there. Cheers, -Jeff

Two videos back to back!! Great Job as always, and does this mean you BACK? Looking forward to the weekly releases! I'm a little concerned your travel is still restricted?

Have you done a tour in Portugal yet? I just did a port wine tour yesterday.. And l learned something crazy in belgium about no longer legaly serving table beer to kids in the canteen around 1950 or '60.. the water in Ghent was so dirty that it was safer to drink beer 🤣🤣

[@drinkdestinations]

@@pietsnot7002 I haven’t done anything in Portugal yet.

[@pietsnot7002]

@@drinkdestinations Come on over. I'm sure there's loads of video material here 🙂 Macieira, green wine, port wine, Croft brandy, medronho, aguardente, Ginja,... just to name a few. Btw l just brought a 10 yo Belgian whisky and an 8 yo genever over from there, when l'm back home l'll be taste testing those 2 😋

Thanks so much! Glad to see more distilleries coming to Campbeltown

[@che4568]

@drinkdestinations as are we here in Campbeltown I like the idea of reclaiming our title! 🥃

[@danbarclay9431]

I really enjoyed this overview of Campbeltown as a whisky producer, did feel a little funny having it narrated by what sounds to be an English person but they know they're stuff and that's the important thing.

[@drinkdestinations]

Hahahahha thanks Dan. He was a member of the Campbeltown historic Center and 💯💯 agree the important thing was the info. Cheers and appreciate you taking the time and commenting. -Jeff
