About this listIslay
Islay is a protected locality under regulation 10 of the Scotch Whisky Regulations 2009, so only Scotch distilled on the Isle of Islay can carry the name. The Scotch Whisky Association's September 2026 list of operating distilleries includes 11 on Islay: Ardbeg, Ardnahoe, Bowmore, Bruichladdich, Bunnahabhain, Caol Ila, Kilchoman, Lagavulin, Laggan Bay, Laphroaig and Port Ellen. Fèis Ìle, the Islay festival, runs in late May, with each distillery hosting its own day; the 2026 edition, its 40th, ran from 22 to 31 May.
