Collection: Islay

The Islay whisky region, located off Scotland's west coast, is famed for producing some of the most distinctive and robust single malt whiskies in the world. Known for their bold, smoky character, Islay whiskies are often heavily peated, with flavors of seaweed, iodine, and salt reflecting the island's maritime environment. Distilleries like Laphroaig, Ardbeg, and Lagavulin are iconic for their intensely smoky and medicinal profiles, while others, such as Bunnahabhain and Bruichladdich, offer more nuanced expressions with softer peat and sweeter, malt-forward notes. The island's rugged landscape and coastal weather deeply influence the whiskies, resulting in a unique and powerful drinking experience that is both revered and distinctive in the world of Scotch whisky.
