I can recommend a visit to the Oban distillery to breathe in the
"atmosphere".
Well, I can recommend a visit to any distillery, but Oban is easier than
most to get to, because it is in the centre of the town. On the quayside
with open access for Trans-Atlantic shipping! Get that Zodiac out, Clint!

Make mine something nice and smo-o-o-o-th like Oban or Knockando, straight
up -- after that, I'd have to check my cabinet. Lightweights, I know, but
that's my bent.
Of course _all_ my OM photos look better after a good single malt, but if
you really want to get into the spirit(s), check out Ichiban sake, served
chilled. That's a premium country sake, made from only the first pressing,
not blended like ordinary sake -- sort of like a Japanese single malt.
