Old Photograph Boats Pier Campbeltown Scotland
Old photograph of boats and people by the pier in Campbeltown, Argyll, Scotland. It is situated by Campbeltown Loch on the Kintyre peninsula. Campbeltown is one of five areas in Scotland categorised as a distinct malt whisky producing region, and is home to the Campbeltown single malts. At one point it had over 30 distilleries and proclaimed itself " the whisky capital of the world ". However, a focus on quantity rather than quality, and the combination of prohibition and the Great Depression in the United States, led to most distilleries going out of business. Today only three active distilleries remain in Campbeltown: Glen Scotia, Glengyle, and Springbank
