The only independent farm distillery on Islay
Kilchoman Distillery , founded in 2005 on the Isle of Islay, is one of Scotland's few farm distilleries. It controls the entire whisky-making process, from growing its own barley to bottling. Known for its artisanal approach, Kilchoman produces distinctive, peaty single malts that capture Islay's essence. Despite its small-scale production, Kilchoman has gained acclaim for whiskies like Machir Bay and Sanaig, recognized for their balance of smoke, sweetness, and complexity.
