Kilchoman Distillery

Established by Anthony Wills in 2005, Kilchoman is the first new distillery on Islay for 124 years. Managed by John MacLellan it is one of the smallest distilleries in Scotland, though unusually it is just one of six distilleries in Scotland to have its own floor maltings providing a third of their needs, the balance comes from the Port Ellen maltings on the Island, though the two are kept quite separate at all stages of production.
