23.9. On the road - for a Berliner Weiße to Tatamagouche

已发表: 25.09.2019

Saying goodbye to Cheticamp and Cape Breton Island. We have two more stops on the island. The first one is at Flora’s Souvenir Shop. Here you can find everything for tourists, but mostly lots of tourists. The store is crowded, and we quickly leave without buying any souvenirs.

The next stop is promising: Glenora Inn and Distillery - the first Single Malt Whisky distillery in Canada. The Scottish influence is evident from the outside. For educational reasons, we skip the tour and instead visit the shop. Here you can buy expensive Whisky, with prices ranging from 110 CA$ to 500 CA$ for 750ml bottles! Unfortunately, you can only taste it if you take the tour.

The entire facility is very beautiful, with a restaurant and accommodation available: https://www.glenoradistillery.com

Back on the mainland, we take the Transcanada Highway 104 to Pictou. There we see the replica of the sailing ship Hector, which in 1773 brought the first 189 Scottish settlers to Brown’s Point, Nova Scotia. This marked the beginning of a massive wave of immigration on the east coast of Canada. Pictou has been considered the birthplace of Nova Scotia ever since. It is unimaginable for us to survive for over 9 weeks on this small schooner.



It's already late when we reach the Tatamagouche Brewing Co.: https://tatabrew.com/ We order two "flights" with six taster glasses each, which we are allowed to test on the terrace, in public. Only the "Hippie Dippie" - a Pale Ale with 5.0% - really convinced us. The Berliner Weiße (also in cans) had nothing to do with the German original. But, the tasting was definitely worth it!



On the way to our accommodation, we can spot white-tailed deer, the most common deer species in North America.

Our B&B "myHomeBy" turns out to be a great, spacious place with friendly owners and excellent breakfast.
