Laphroaig Distillery
Local highlightLaphroaig is one of the most intensely peaty, smoky whiskies you can buy — people tend to love it or recoil. Sign up as a Friend of Laphroaig and you get a token lease on a square foot of Islay, redeemable for a dram whenever you visit. It sits on the south coast east of Port Ellen, with tours and tasting experiences on offer; book ahead, especially in summer.
