Lochranza (Isle of Arran)
Arran's first legal distillery for more than 150 years, founded in 1995 in the village of Lochranza on the island's northern tip. Non-chill-filtered core range at 46% ABV gives the whisky real weight for a young Islands malt; 2019 brought a second Arran distillery at Lagg in the south.

Highland Park
Orkney’s northernmost Scotch distillery uses heather-infused peat and slow maturation in a famously cold island climate. Balanced, honeyed, lightly smoky.
Talisker
The only distillery on Skye for most of its history, sitting on the shore of Loch Harport in Carbost. Talisker 10 is one of the most instantly recognisable Scotch profiles — peppery, maritime, gently smoked — and the distillery is a near-compulsory stop for any Skye road trip.
Isle of Raasay
The first legal distillery on the small Inner Hebridean island of Raasay, just off Skye's east coast. Produces both lightly peated and unpeated spirit side-by-side and vats them; the visitor centre doubles as a boutique hotel for overnight stays.
