By the way, concerning Port Ellen, he told me he heard the distillery was getting back to work or planning to do so. With some luck it isn't simply rumours.
Back onto the topic of Port Ellen ... I was recently doing some browsing around on wikipedia, and there seems to be some mention on there of a new distillery in 2010.

Look about halfway down the page at the "Distilleries".
