The first option looks overly cinematic and derivative and the third has too much of the ‘old todger’ about it.
The sepia photograph might be one representation of the hotel, but it looks old,tired and foreboding, like how I imagine the ‘Hotel California’ . I wouldn’t be rushing to visit.
Option 2 however speaks about the product – although it may be corny, I’d have a go at making the word Torridon appear in the colored barrels .
Although I’ve seen similar things to 1 and 3 – I’ve never seen anything like option 2 before.

If I had stayed at Torridon (which I haven’t as yet) opening this bottle, with a picture of the hotel on the front, would more likely have taken me back to my stay and helped me re-live the experience.
