• Location: Islay, Scotland
• Founded: 2005 by Anthony Wills

  • One of the few Islay distilleries to produce entirely from farm to bottle: they grow their own barley, mill, distil and mature it on the island
  • Style: powerful, peaty, smoky, sometimes maritime with hints of sea salt
  • Core range: Machir Bay, Sanaig, Loch Gorm, 100% Islay, special releases
  • Known for traditional production and a high degree of control over the entire process, which is rare among modern Islay distilleries

💡 Fun fact: Kilchoman is one of the youngest distilleries on Islay, but stands out for its authentic, artisanal approach and entirely locally grown barley, making it a true “farm-to-bottle” Islay whisky.
