Billed as “a sensory voyage through the malt whiskies of the Islands of Scotland”, The Six Isles whisky brand is owned by Ian Macleod Distillers. First introduced in the early 2000s, this blend brings together the smoky and peaty characteristics of Islay, the maritime influence of Jura and Skye, the rich and complex profiles of Mull and Orkney, and the balanced, aromatic qualities of Arran. The result is a whisky indicative of island single malt scotch. The Six Isles brand also encompasses a number of other expressions such as Voyager and Batch Strength.
