Ardbeg

Established in 1815, Ardbeg is revered by connoisseurs around the world as among the peatiest and smokiest, yet most complex, of all the Islay malts.
Despite its smokiness, Ardbeg is renowned for its delicious sweetness, a phenomenon that has affectionately become known as ‘the peaty paradox’.
Ardbeg has been named Distillery of the Year four times by the prestigious International Whisky Competition. Proof then that it deserves its reputation as The Ultimate Islay Single Malt Whisky.
