Pràban na Linne

Pràban na Linne was founded on the Isle of Skye in 1976 by Sir Iain Noble, who saw whisky as part of a wider effort to create local opportunity and strengthen Gaelic life in the Hebrides. The blender and bottler is based beside the old stone pier at Eilean Iarmain on the Sleat peninsula. Its name evokes a small smuggling enterprise on the Sound of Sleat. Gaelic language and island culture also run through its whisky names: Tè Bheag, Poit Dhubh and MacNaMara.
