Maker:

Ardbeg is a renowned and revered name in the world of Scotch whisky. Situated on the remote Isle of Islay off the west coast of Scotland, Ardbeg Distillery has been producing exceptional single malt whiskies since 1815. Known for its distinctive peaty and smoky flavour profile, Ardbeg whiskies have gained a loyal following among whisky enthusiasts worldwide.

The small, remote Scottish island of Islay (pronounced 'eye-lah') is an antique land. A wild and untamed place, where Celtic monks found refuge from raiding Norsemen and early distillers smuggled their illicit "aquavitae" at Ardbeg's rugged rocky cove. Abundant soft water, fertile soil and acres of precious peat makes this island a place of pilgrimage for the single malt whisky faithful. And none more so than our very own Ardbeg, unquestionably the greatest distillery on Earth. For over 200 years, Ardbeg has been made on Islay. Some people travel to Ardbeg along the winding road from Port Ellen. Others follow their nose, their destiny or the advice of a good friend.

The Distillery:

Ardbeg's distillation process involves two stages to produce a high-quality spirit. The first distillation in the wash still results in "low wines" at about 24% alcohol. The second distillation in the spirit still raises the alcohol content to 76%, with initial impurities (foreshots) removed and only the purest spirit, starting the Spirit Cut, is selected for maturation. This spirit is collected until it reaches 62.5% alcohol, with any remaining impurities sent back for further distillation. Ardbeg's whisky matures in a mix of casks, including ex-Bourbon barrels, Sherry Butts, and French Oak, which contribute to its distinct salty, iodine character due to its coastal location.
