Next stop Campbeltown. We went past the lighthouse, at the harbour entrance, and moored up to the single pontoon near the fishing boat wharf. We then paid a visit to the very, very old and traditional distillery. After the modern equipment at the
traditional methods being used by the Springbank distillery. Most of the equipment and buildings seemed to have been put together in the 1800’s. The guide stressed that if anything had to be replaced then it was carefully copied in the same materials. They even prepare their own barley and Ann was able to have a go at turning it with a ‘grubber’. We had paid £10 each
for the visit and that was supposed to include four tastings. However, they were very generous and we eventually lost count of the tishtings and eventually somehow managed to find our way back to Jomima.
