Glenora Distillery president Lauchie MacLean checks out a bottle of Glen Breton single malt whiskey in 2009. At the time, the Inverness County distillery launched a special edition product that saluted the neighbouring world-class Cabot Links golf course. - Tim Krochak / SaltWire FileIf you have visited Inverness in the last 10 years, you’ve seen the tremendous impact of Cabot’s golf courses.
At Glenora Inn and Distillery, we’ve been able to share our island’s Celtic culture and roots with these travellers from around the world. We’ve put Cape Breton on the global whisky map in much the same way Cabot has done with golf. When we think of Scotland, we think of Celtic culture, dancing, the Gaelic language and great single malt whisky, but we should also think of great golf courses such as St. Andrew’s. Scotland has been able to create a tourism industry that marries all these wonderful aspects; Cape Breton, too, has all of these.
Cabot is a known entity here in Inverness County and has made a real difference with good jobs, major investment, and helped turn a corner for us on many levels. It is very evident to all that the golf courses in Inverness have enhanced the natural beauty of the community and made it an attractive destination. Jobs have been created, capital construction of homes has occurred, and families have moved back to stay in the area. It has given us hope.
This is especially true, given our aging demographic. What makes this project extra worthwhile is that it is from a local company started just 25 minutes down the road.
