Kilchoman was the first distillery to be built on Islay in over 124 years. Founded in 2005, Kilchoman produces Scotland’s only Single Farm Single
Malt. A family run business, established by Anthony and Kathy Wills, the husband and wife team persuaded their three sons; George, James and Peter, to join the business as it expanded. The Wills family remains the driving force behind Kilchoman with Anthony as Master Blender, Kathy head of the Visitor Centre and their three sons managing the distillery’s sales and marketing activities. Their 100% Islay philosophy stems from Anthony and Kathy’s desire to resurrect the grass roots tradition of farm distilling. It represents the revival of single malt whisky being cultivated from barley to bottle in a single location.
