    So pleased to see that you ended up in my childhood home at Bunnahabhainn. I was brought up in one of the shore front cottages next to the distillery....a truly magical setting.

    Its pronounced Mak-ir - The Machair is the strip of sand at the back of the beach. It is usually grassy with loads of flowers. The Machair lochs tend to hold all the best trout, Loch Gorm on the road to Kilchoman is typical of these types of lochs. Machir bay is a great beach to visit on Islay it just a bit along the road from Kilchoman Distillery. You really should try go on a Bruichladdich tour, its just the best! But don't drive that day😁

    Hi! I’ve been following all your Scotland videos and was wondering if you guys can share how many days you guys spent there and kind of a roadmap of things you guys planned?
    Going in October and everything looks so beautiful!

    • @AdamandMadalyn

      8 days, we had some hiccups. First mistake was booking the wrong hotel date in Skye. We then couldn’t utilize the ferry from Skye to Mallaig, which we wanted to visit because of the Highland Games. Also, Islay was the #1 destination Adam wanted to go to post COVID, and there were some ferry delays. Also we didn’t get our luggage, so we had to go back to Edinburgh instead of returning the car in Glasgow. We had to reorganize on the fly and things weren’t as smooth as we typically would like, but the trip was amazing nonetheless!

    Hi!! It seems you were travelling with a baby. Am I right? We are planning to visit Islay distilleries with our baby and we want to be sure we will be able to do the tours with her.

    • @AdamandMadalyn
      @AdamandMadalyn  2 місяці тому

      Check with Ardbeg, they may be able to accommodate a baby on a tour (or perhaps a tasting) however we traded off. Adam did the tasting and tour at Lagavulin and Madalyn the tour at Ardbeg and tasting at Bruichladdich. The rest were just stop ins on the grounds.

    You do know that drinking and driving in Scotland is zero tolerance. The editing of this video made it look like a one day trip so I'm basing it off that, but if anyone watching this thinks you can just go to Scotland do a tasting and drive on like over here. You're wrong and could possibly be in for a rude awakening.
