Islay Mist 8 Year Old 1980s

Islay Mist was originally created on Islay in 1922 to celebrate the 21st birthday of Lord Margadale.

The theory was that the intensity of the Islay malts might be too much for all the guests to handle, so some Speyside whisky and a grain whisky were blended with some Islay malts to create Islay Mist.

Islay Mist has always been incredibly popular, we are excited to offer a great example of this blend.
