Classic Malts Cruise

Sunday April 6, 2008
Looking for a unique way to tour some of Scotland's most famed distilleries? How about by boat? But I'm not talking about any ordinary booze cruise.

The Classic Malts Cruise is a loosely-structured, 200-mile voyage along the western coast of Scotland. Participants choose their own route and itinerary (as well as provide their own boat) during the two-week jaunt, but there are a number of planned events for all participating crews. The Oban, Talisker, and Lagavulin distilleries will each host a day of tours, tastings, dinners, and traditional ceilidhs. And of course, there are plenty of distilleries and ports-of-call to check out on your own time.

There is no fee to participate, but entries are limited to the first 200 people. For more information, visit the Classic Malts Cruise website. This year's voyage sets sail on July 12th.
