Bruichladdich and the Distillery On the North Western shore of Lochindaal the village of Bruichladdich has long and until recently boasted the most westerly distillery in Scotland. On a day when the sea mist had rolled in I dropped by to get a few photographs. The distillery was recently bought by a private consortium and has a wonderful website and the only webcams permanently on on the island They have a well developed sense of corporate identity as the barrel sign shows using the colours identified with the product. As usual these smaller images link to the full-sized image.

| In the courtyard of the distillery there area picnic tables and a shop. There are three tours a day for those wanting to see round. | The webcams which point at the east loch and the west loch are situated in the highlighted circle. They show up better in the full-sized image | The day had a fine sea mist, the jetty peers out through the mist in a spooky way. |
 |
Amazingly, considering the wild winters, the climate is very mild due to the calming effects of the Gulf Stream. In the Abbotsford Guest house next door to the distillery a fine yucca dominates the gate. |
