KILCHOMAN was founded by Anthony Wills in June 2005. For more than 124 years a new distillery has not seen the light of day on the island of Islay on the west coast of Scotland. Supplied by the Port Ellen maltings, it now makes a point of bringing in around 20% of the barley grown on its own land. Certainly one of the smallest distilleries on the island, but already boasting a prestigious maturity.
