Inside the Oban Distillery I spotted this photo - the story is about the "Classic Malt Cruise" in which "Every Summer, yachts on the West Coast of Scotland take part in the Classic Malt Cruise. Beginning with an opening ceremony and party at Oban Distillery, participants make their way, first to Talisker, on the Isle of Skye, then to Lagavulin on the Isle of Islay, before returning to Oban for the finish, the whole cruise lasts a fortnight."
