Kilchoman Distillery, founded in 2005, is the first distillery to be built on Islay for over 120 years. In addition to being one of the few distilleries to still practice floor malting, barley is grown on this family-run farm for use in Kilchoman's 100% Islay expression.

Lochlea, opened 2018, is a farm-to-bottle, independent distillery in Scotland’s Lowlands. Located in Ayrshire, where Robert Burns once lived & worked, Lochlea trades poetry for whisky as a tool for conveying the heart of Scotland.

Ardnamurchan Distillery in Scotland's western Highlands has been lauded in single malt circles since it first opened in 2014. Now, the distillery applies the same careful crafting techniques at play in its single malt expressions to its blended marque, Maclean’s Nose.
