If you want a Ben Wyvis the place to go is the Road Hole Bar
Scotland’s luxury resort, the Old Course Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa, has achieved Whisky Hotel of the World Supreme status, on the merit of its Road Hole Bar, in the 2008 ‘Icons of Whisky’ awards by Whisky Magazine.
The Supreme award places the Road Hole Bar within the top 25 per cent of the world’s best whisky bars and restaurants. All entries from around the world were judged by a panel of eight experts, with consideration given to the size and depth of the whisky collection, glassware used for service, proper pouring procedure and presentation, and the all-important staff knowledge.
The Road Hole Bar was recently re-launched following a refurbishment of the entire fourth floor of the hotel, including the addition of new floor-to-ceiling windows that offer some of the best views in Scotland.
The Road Hole Bar is also famous for its selection of 200 whiskies, representing every operational and many mothballed distilleries in Scotland, including a Tullibardine, Highland Malt, 1988, which is only sold in the top 10 per cent of bars in the UK, and a rare Ben Wyvis, Highland Malt, 1972.
This news follows on from the resort’s current listing in the “100 Ultimate Escapes†in Robb Report Luxury Resorts. The magazine offers first-hand accounts of 100 exclusive properties from around the world, and the Old Course Hotel is only one of four properties in the UK to be featured in this report.
