The images are in the top bar of web page. Click on a distillery and the image at the top should change.
Thanks,
Stewart

Stewart,

Was wondering if it’s possible to post a picture of the distilleries when their links are accessed long the left side. I know nothing about web design… probably a logistical nightmare right? All the pertinent information is included with each link (contact information, yada, yada…) but a picture is always appreciated. Do you think people look for the architectural quaintness of a place before they choose to visit or is it just me? lol Only a thought. Thanks.

Thanks for your comments. We’re looking at updating a couple of areas. What would you improve?
Thanks again for your lovely feedback, it’s really appreciated.

Nice informative website, kept simple and easy to navigate. Of that list of distilleries I have been to Talisker only.

There seems to be a “renaissance” happening with West Coast distilleries, with many apparently opening up after having been closed for some time. Here in Australia a local liquor chain recently promoted newly available whiskys from Islay and Jura. So I managed some tastings of Bruichladdich and was rewarded with a very tasty experience.

Hi Stewart,

Lovely site design. Crisp, clean, fun.
And the distilleries are some of my favorites.
Congrats on a job well done. And also on you awards (mentioned in previous post).
Take care,
Peace.

Oh, but this is just brilliant! I’m truly impressed! I’d go, and I haven’t had a drop to drink in 14 & 1/2 years. The scenery alone is worth it, and I’d still tour the distilleries. I’m a lover of coastlines, I live on one, and this is definitely one I would love to experience. So I’d say the whole thing is a success since it really made me want to see it.

I did find an error, though. On the Laphroaig page, where Our Narrator explains the meaning of the place-name, the quotation marks are in the wrong place. It should read —Laphroaig means “the beautiful hollow by the broad bay” in Gaelic and remains the home of the no.1 Islay malt scotch whisky.—instead of Laphroaig means “the beautiful hollow by the broad bay in Gaelic” and remains the home of the no.1 Islay malt scotch whisky.

Hope this helped, and congrats on such a wonderful accomplishment!
