A GIN-MAKER has plans to create an Oban spirit in Edinburgh – decanting water from Loch Nell at Kilmore and transporting it to the city.
The owner of Oban Gin and McCaig’s Distillery trademarks had initially planned to set up a distillery in the town but had failed to secure premises.
With almost 300 people in the town supporting former Oban man David Robertson’s aspirations for the brand, some were disappointed to find out he would not be opening a local distillery. However, others are delighted the product may finally find its way into the shops.
