An Islay keepsake with more than an island name

Bowmore, Port Charlotte and Port Ellen are settlements on Islay, each giving a named point of reference within the island. Bowmore also appears among its distilleries, alongside Bruichladdich, Ardbeg, Lagavulin and Laphroaig. The distillery names connect the island's whisky identity with particular places, rather than describing a drink with no geographical setting. Laphroaig, Lagavulin and Ardbeg lie along Islay's south-east coast, forming a distinct coastal group within that wider list.

The Museum of Islay Life is in Port Charlotte. Its name and location place an account of island life within one of Islay's settlements, separate from the distillery settings along the south-east shore. The Kildalton Cross carries carved symbols, giving another particular feature to the island's heritage. Museum, settlement and carved cross offer different points of connection for someone whose interest in Islay extends beyond a single distillery name.

Fèis Ìle is the island's annual whisky festival. It brings the distilling connection into Islay's calendar as well as its landscape. The Machrie is a golf links on the island, adding a sporting setting to these cultural and coastal references. Islay's nickname, the Queen of the Hebrides, covers this variety of named places: Port Charlotte's museum, the south-east distilleries, the Kildalton Cross and the links at The Machrie.

Gift ideas: the Islay designs below offer a starting point for a present about the island as a whole. Choose a specific address or place from your own story with the Where It Happened map print. A map can recognise a personal connection without needing the whole journey printed beside it. Also explore Islay - Come On Then, Islay - Still Here, Argyll and Bute.
