Story · Caol Ila Distillery
You're standing at Caol Ila, a whisky distillery just outside Port Askaig on the Scottish island of Islay. Start by looking at the water. That's the Sound of Islay, the narrow strait between Islay and its neighbour Jura. It gave the distillery its name, too: Caol Ìle is Gaelic for that very strait.
