Islay belongs to the Inner Hebrides in Scotland. The island lies between the Isle of Jura and Northern Ireland. From Ireland, the whisky once crossed over to Islay and thus entered Scotland. The most important place is Bowmore. Other places of interest are Port Ellen and Port Charlotte. The population is just over 3000. With its 8 distilleries, 6 of which produce a smoky whisky, Islay is formally a separate whisky region. It is therefore also known as the Whisky Island.
According to some, this Smokehead Islay single malt whisky is young Caol Ila finished in Ardbeg casks. Perhaps. In any case, this is a beautiful, uncomplicated and pleasantly drinkable dram for the smoky whisky lover. At 40%.
This is another exceptional Symington's Choice from bottler Signatory Vintage: a Laphroaig single malt that matured for 25 years in an Oloroso sherry cask. A powerful, complex and perfectly balanced whisky, still quite smoky despite its age. (54.5% ABV)
The classic Islay malt Caol Ila was subject in an experiment with two sherry casks for this bottling, a first-fill and a refill. This resulted in a delicious, rich, and almost creamy single malt with intense peat smoke and maritime notes. (57.1% ABV)
Is this an Ardbeg? Or a whisky from one of the other two distilleries located along Kildalton Road on the whisky island of Islay? In any case, the single malt whisky in this Wave Farewell To 2025 bottling matured for 16 years in a bourbon cask. (52.1%)

For a few years now, Signatory Vintage has been offering the 100 Proof series. This sherried Scotch whisky series excels due to its excellent price-quality ratio. A fine example is this Caol Ila single malt, matured in bourbon and Oloroso casks. (57.1%)
Just like the year before, bottler Asta Morris released a 7-year-old Caol Ila single malt whisky in 2019, matured in a sherry cask. This edition, too, is a complex, creamy, full-bodied, and beautifully balanced sherried dram. (55.9%)
At the time, this 15-year-old bottling, celebrating Fèis Ìle 2019, was only available at Islay distillery Bowmore itself. The single malt whisky matured in first-fill bourbon casks and is bottled at 51.7% ABV. Spicy oak, shortbread, and bergamot notes.
This is one of the bottlings in Bowmore's Vintner's Trilogy, a three-part series of single malts finished in wine casks. This 18-year-old edition first matured in bourbon casks and then spent five years in Manzanilla casks. A rich and complex dram. 52.5%
A classic single malt whisky, this Bowmore, from the oldest distillery on the Isle of Islay. The whisky matured for 12 years in carefully selected bourbon and oloroso casks. So, essentially, a 'best of both worlds' whisky. And at a great price! (40%)
In anticipation of the winter season, we present this Big Peat Winter Edition, a blended malt, finished in warming Madeira casks. Douglas Laing's Big Peat bottlings are always blends of peated Islay single malt whiskies. So, yes, 'Big Peat'. (53.6%)
The name suggests otherwise, but Wilson & Morgan is an Italian bottler. In 2004, they bottled this 10-year-old Bruichladdich single malt whisky at an Extra Strength of 50% ABV. The unpeated Islay malt matured in a bourbon cask from 1993 onwards.
In 2018, the first spirit flowed from the unique stills of Islay's ninth distillery, Ardnahoe. This Bholsa, named after the caves in Islay's rugged north, is their third regular bottling. The single malt matured predominantly in Oloroso casks. (50%)
Lagavulin released this bottling for the 2019 Islay whisky festival, Feis Ile. The peated single malt whisky matured for 19 years in sherried American oak casks. The combination of 'Lagavulin' and 'sherry' resulted in a superb dram! (53.8% ABV)

In 1975, the spirit for this Ardbeg was vatted, to be released 25 years later, in 2000, as an exemplary old-style Islay single malt whisky. An oily, full-bodied, complex, and delicate dram with relatively mild peat smoke notes due to its age. (43% ABV)
Living Souls entered the whisky market in 2024. Until now, they primarily bottled blended Scotch whiskies, but they also release single malts and, like this Williamson, blended malts. The 'teaspooned' Laphroaig matured for 13 years in a bourbon cask. 46%
This bottle was hand-filled in 2014 by a visitor to Islay distillery Bowmore. A truly unique bottle! The single malt whisky comes, at cask strength (49.4%) of course, from a first-fill Oloroso sherry cask in which it matured for 18 years. (Rating: 90.78)

A true Laphroaig, this 12-year-old single malt. Medicinal notes juxtapose sweet, salty, and tarry notes with ash and smoked barley. This Islay malt was bottled by Douglas Laing in 2025 at 48.4% ABV after having matured in a refill bourbon cask.
