Scotch produced on the islands surrounding the mainland of Scotland offers a very diverse and different taste; they're not, however, recognized by the Scotch Whisky Association but are easily grouped for geographic reasons as one as they're all islands.
There are nearly 800 islands off of Scotland’s coastline, with only a few are inhabited; it's easy to see why the varying style differentiates from North to South. Of the inhabited islands, Orkney has two whisky distilleries, Scapa and Highland Park, Lewis & Harris is home to Abhainn Dearg, Talisker is located on Skye, Tobermory on Mull with Jura and Arran located on their namesake islands. Although diverse in flavors, peat and salinity are found in all Islands whiskies; the latter is because of the sea's vicinity.
Talisker is currently the largest Island distillery in Scotland, with a capacity of 2.6 litres; you'll be sure to find a bottle of this in most bars around the World.
