It’s been a busy but fun few days here at the Islay Whisky Academy. Fèis Ìle 2026 is flying along and we’ve been cutting peat, taking people for a storytelling walk around Bowmore, and pairing whisky and music at Ceòl agus Craic - there’ve been some excellent drams, lovely people, great music and unbroken sunshine throughout.

Bunnahabhain Distillery might not be the easiest place to get to but those willing to make the journey will encounter a wonderfully traditional distillery, stunning views, and some of the finest single malt Scotch whiskies available. You might even get a wee song or two 😉 It often makes for an educational and engaging stop on our Islay Whisky Academy Diplomas!

Beautiful Islay. How lucky we are to welcome people from all over the world to this magical island. There’s so much more to Islay than whisky, although the drams are pretty good too! Who will be visiting the island for Fèis?
