Scarbus Distillery stands in the middle of the hill, a bit to the northeast from the place where it's a mile away from Bridgend to the Port Askaig direction on A846. Though this place is not certain. It was established by John Darrack & Co. in 1817-18. The exact year when they started distilling and ceased is not certain. The local people there says that there used to be a farm called Balole Farm, a mile away to the east from Scarrabus Farm, where they made whisky in those days. Loch Cam, just a few minutes from this place, springs superior water.
