Bowmore is the first licensed Islay distillery.
It has stood on the shores of Lochindaal, a sea loch opening out into the wild Atlantic Ocean, since 1779.
To this day, the distillery still operates in traditional ways, honouring the origin whisky-making techniques. Bowmore is still hand crafted today.
