Andrew Jefford - Peat Smoke and Spirit
Those who discover malt whisky quickly learn that the malts made on the Isle of Islay are some of the wildest and most characterful in the malt-whisky spectrum. In PEAT SMOKE AND SPIRIT, Islay's fascinating story is uncovered: from its history and stories of the many shipwrecks which litter its shores, to intimate descriptions of the beautiful wildlife, landscape and topography of the island.

| Description: | Islay has the highest proportion of Malt Whisky Distilleries per head of population in the world. And because the traditional way of getting ingredients in and whisky out of each distillery was by puffer, with the exception of Islay's newest distillery at Kilchoman, all the distilleries are sighted at the water's edge. This means that we can take you on a tour of the islands' distilleries, including Jura without ever setting foot on land. |
