Each tour comes with a unique and exclusive tasting whilst enjoying the spectacular views over Loch Indaal – a real money can’t buy experience! For something extra special, we recommend you booking dinner within The Harbour Inn shortly after your tour experience.
Bowmore
The original Islay. The Pioneer. Bowmore is the first licensed Islay distillery, and it has stood on the shores of Lochindaal, a sea loch opening out into the wild Atlantic Ocean, since 1779. To this day, the distillery still operates in traditional ways, honouring the origin whisky-making techniques. Bowmore is still handcrafted in everything they do still to this day.
