Hear Bruichladdich

The Coast of Heaven?
Bruichladdich is proud to have been immortalized in a cool song written by Robin Laing following a visit to the distillery last year. A reference in the song to ‘The Coast of Heaven’ coincides with the discovery that the colour of the universe, commonly held to be black, is in fact Bruichladdich’s aquamarine. Spooky or what? www.robinlaing.com

The song can be downloaded here: Real media or Windows media player.  You can also view a "Microsoft Powerpoint" slide show which we have compiled to match the song.  Click here to see it.

'Westering Home'

'Westering Home' is a wistful,  ballad for many years sung by homesick sailors returning from long voyages around the world, and has become The Islay Song. Here it is  performed by Norma Monroe  and  her delightful crystal clear voice. Download the MPG here 1.2mb For more of her traditional Scottish ballads click http://www.ileach.co.uk/norma/

Westering Home = Sailing west for home, Canty & Couthie = Cheerful and homely, hame wi'my ain = home with my own
hie me = to have me (to stay)
