stocked primarily with Islay malts.\u00a0 The food in this venue is second to none, and the seafood to die for.\u00a0 The nearest, and within walking distance, is Bruichladdich Distillery.\u00a0 This delightfully friendly distillery looks over Lochindaal, so the combination of a wonderful dram, an exceptional view and some of the cleanest air I have ever breathed in is a joy.\u00a0 Obviously, if you make it to the Island, it would be \u201cjust rude\u201d if you didn\u2019t visit some of the other phenomenal distilleries on the island.
