Why this pub with over 1000 whiskies is Glasgow's top-rated
The Pot Still on Hope Street has operated in some shape or form since 1867 and has had a number of families at its helm.
The Murphys, who are the location's current owners, have been involved in the bar since 2003, taking full control in 2011.
Since then, the establishment has gone on to win both the Scottish Dram Awards' Whisky Bar of the Year accolade and Scottish Field magazine's Whisky Bar of the Year Award in 2016, according to The Pot Still's website.
