Islay……. a place of rich history, rugged landscape, rare wildlife, and a whisky heritage like no other. It’s a place of renowned friendliness, beautiful scenery, and over 3,000 years of compressed, waterlogged moss, vegetation and plants that have grown and died, creating the Peat banks of today. There is nowhere else on earth like it. A quest to find Scotland’s best whisky might bring you to the island, and as many of you find out, Islay is so much more and the very reason why you stay, immigrate, or become returning visitors for years to come.
There are nine iconic distilleries here, with a few more distilleries planned and approved to include Port Ellen. Some of the most famous names in the whisky world are located here. All on an island of 3,000 people.
Whisky is, of course, Islay’s ultimate claim to fame; it is a way of life on this windswept isle. That said, there is so much more to Islay’s charm than its golden drams: the landscape, the light, the coast, the cuisine, and the locals. Hope you enjoy the episode and please let us know what you think of this video in the comment section below.

🎥 Welcome to the official RU-vid Channel of Beer, Wine & Spirits 🎥
Hi, I’m Jeff Bradford. My passion for beer, wine, and spirits ignited an urge to investigate the stories behind the labels.
So, in 2018, I sold everything I owned to travel the world.
My objective: to learn the secrets of brewers, winemakers, and distillers.
From Switzerland to Mexico, I set out to determine why their process yields extraordinary results.
With each stop on the map, I reveal time-honored traditions, cultural influences, and industry practices that help you discover the soul of these incredible products.
As a former member of the US military, I learn by doing.
You’ll see me harvesting grapes in South Africa, pouring beer at Oktoberfest, and chopping agave in Tequila.
My channel is dedicated to the passionate, hardworking people who make the beverages associated with our favorite celebrations, special events and amazing moments with those we love.
Join me as I find the next fascinating story about your favorite Beer, Wine, and Spirits.
Cheers!
🎬 So, definitely subscribe to my channel and hit the bell to never miss a Video 🔔

Just stumbled across your video and wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed it. It’s refreshing to see a proper documentary about Islay and its whisky industry instead of the typical vlog that just regurgitates cliches and well-worn trivia. The interviews were engaging and this is one video that I’ll definitely recommend to other enthusiasts. You made me want to go back to visit the island again! Cheers 🥂

What a wonderful piece of work, beautifully filmed and gives a great insight into both the industry and the community. I didn't realise the industry was in such a slump in the 1980's and the effect it had on these small communities. My wife would argue that my personal consumption of Islay single malt should keep at least one distillery running for the foreseeable future.

Great video! It took me awhile to get into the smokey Islay malts but now they are my favorite. The unique flavors of Islay whisky are what keeps ke coming back for another bottle. I like them all… Lagavulin, Ardbeg, Caol Ila, Laphroaig, Bowmore, Port Charlotte & Bunnahabhain. The 16 year Lagavulin is my favorite though.
