Visitor Centre: Tours, Tastings and Lunches
July 12, 2024After a very busy start to the season and another successful Fèis Ìle behind us, we are busy focusing on plans for Summer 2024.
In addition to our usual tours, we have some special experiences to take place from July 22nd to August 19th.
The first of these is our Farm tour. This will be available to book on Mondays and Wednesdays, during that period. As a farm distillery we are very proud of our agricultural heritage and this tour will give you the chance to see the barley fields up close, visit our peat bank and explore the area that has inspired us to make our award-winning whiskies, all from the comfort of our Kilchoman Land Rover. And to make it even better you get to sample five delicious drams along the way.
The next is a Beach Tasting – a firm favourite in recent years.
Spend an hour with one of our guides on the shores of Machir Bay as we talk you through four of our core range whiskies telling you stories from the distillery while soaking up the atmosphere of one of Islay’s most beautiful beaches.
Don’t worry if you do not have time for a tour, you can try the full range of our whiskies as well as some exclusives and archive releases at our whisky bar, which is open from 10am-4.45pm and does not require a booking.
Our café is open from 12 – 3.30pm serving lunches – including our world-famous Cullen skink. We serve tea, coffee and home baking from 10am – 4.30pm.
Booking is advisable for lunch as we do get very busy and do not want to disappoint anyone. Dogs are very welcome, and we have designated tables in the café so if you are bringing your four-legged friend, please advise at time of booking so we can reserve the correct table for you.
We look forward to a busy summer, welcoming back familiar faces as well as sharing some new experiences with you all.
The visitor centre is open seven days a week.
