Kilchoman is a distillery located on the Isle of Islay, off the west coast of Scotland. It was founded in 2005, making it one of the newest distilleries on the island. Kilchoman is unique in that it is one of the few distilleries in Scotland to carry out the entire whisky making process on site, from growing its own barley to bottling the finished product. The distillery uses traditional methods such as floor malting, and its whisky is aged in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks. Kilchoman's signature peated whisky, Machir Bay, has won several awards and is highly regarded by whisky enthusiasts.
