Well, my remark was based on studying a map that is made available in Scotland showing where they are all made. I did not say that there were not single malts made elsewhere but on the map Elgin seems to have the by far the largest number of locations. By the way did you tour the remainder of the Elgin Cathedral, the “Lantern O’ the North,” that was partly destroyed by “the Wolf of Badenoch?” It was the old caretaker there who informed one of my brothers of what the name means.

Yes, I’ve been to Elgin Cathedral and heard tales of the Wolf of Badenoch. Scotland has a dramatic history, and my first trip there was filled with tales of mad lords, secret rooms in castles, ghosts, dungeons, wars, clan skirmishes, treachery, heroism, and all manner of skulduggery.
