The Magnificent 7
One of the Magnificent seven

Just as France has its wine regions Scotland has it Whisky regions.
Malt Whisky is classified by the location of the distillery where it was made. The four main categories are - Highland, Speyside, Lowland and Islay. There are seven working distilleries on Islay and one on the neighbouring island of Jura, all international known for the fine malt whisky they produce.
And here's THE best link I've found so far for Whisky tours and background to the distilleries.
And by the way Islay Whisky Festival 2005 is on 28th May to 5th June 2005.
Ah yes! Such is the stuff that dreams are made of.
