Scotland -- The Whisky Trail
The Whisky Trail winds for a hundred kilometres through a dozen distilleries and a cooperage, from Inverness to Aberdeen, Scotland and introduces us to a history of illicit stills and the angel's share. You need a nose for this business and on the Speyside Trail we talk to the experts as we visit the distilleries of StrathIsla, Glenfarclas, Glenfiddich, and Balvenie and end our tour at the Whisky Heritage Centre in Edinburgh. Each distillery has its own unique contribution to Scottish whisky from copper stills and pure water, to malting floors and peat fires, and the all-important whisky casks. For more information visit ontopoftheworld.net and check out episode #22 in the Journeys through the British Isles category.

We started the day with a visit to Speyside Cooperage then headed to the Glenlivet Distillery and ended our whisky tour at Glenfiddich Distillery. After all that whisky tasting I needed to try some local beer so we ended the night at Fierce back in Aberdeen.

The Whisky Line, Spirit Of Speyside 2015
This was one of the festival events I attended that (almost) didn’t involve whisky.
Boarding at the old train station in Keith, not far from Strathisla, the trip is an eleven-mile line linking Dufftown to Keith. The line was reopened by volunteers during 2000 and 2001, and passes through some of Scotland's most picturesque scenery, with forest and farmland, lochs and glens, castles and distilleries. The line is overgrown in some parts, and slowly travels up and down through some beautiful scenery. The whole thing feels a bit like the train in Spirited Away. Speaking of spirits, we also got a dram of Glenlivet 12 and a bit of shortbread to keep us happy. The Scandinavians in the carriage behind us had a singsong, mutilating We’ll Meet Again in the process. But sitting on a slow train to god knows where with the sun flickering through the trees and deer occasionally appearing, they could have been singing Cannibal Corpse’s Fucked With A Knife and I wouldn’t have cared. It was bliss.
