Islay is best known for peaty whiskies
as the island has many feet of peat all over and few trees-
The peatiest whiskies do come from the isle.
Bowmore is the least peaty in my experience,
and some of the Bruchladich are not that strong.
In not liking the peat- stay away from Port Ellen, Ardbeg, Lagavulin and Cao Ila.
If you like Speyside, and want a lovely dram, try Edradour - a small producer, just north of Edinburgh.
If you want something of an Island with out Peat, I will suggest three:
Tobemory from my family's home, Isle of Mull
Scapa or Highland Park - in the Orkney Isles - a wonderful dram!
Talisker - from the Isle of Skye
Have fun!
Happy Listening
