Hi Folks. Sorry to say that The Ben Nevis Highland Centre in Fort William was broken into on Sunday night and whisky was stolen. Men matching the description of the ones who targeted us were seen in the shop. They are still out there targeting retailers so please be on your guard and please pass on to any retailers you know in the area. If you see them, call the police immediately.

User

Lovely meeting you all and thanks for taking the time to come in and film!

User

Hi Folks. A quick heads up to all retailers in the area. This group of 3 men stole some expensive bottlings from our shop yesterday. The were quick, professional and organised. The one who actually lifted the bottles was wearing a distinctive big padded jacket with the PORC logo on the back and had a small pony tail. The police believe they may be running a circuit, so please pass this on to any local retailers you know.

The Whisky Castle is probably the best Whisky Shop that I have ever been too. I spent more than I was expecting but the lovely people who run the shop were ever so accommodating, very friendly and were more than happy to let us sample their extensive selection. Very tempted to go back before we leave Tomintoul. We were even allowed to hold a bottle of their 68 year old Whisky that they are proud of. In short, if you visit Tomintoul, you enjoy or appreciate Whisky... then pop in. You won't be disappointed
