The Ardbeg Distillery is situated on the southern coast of the Isle of Islay, with a history dating back to 1815. Although it faced closure in the 1980s, its revival after being acquired by the Glenmorangie Company in 1997 quickly established it as a legend in the whisky world. Ardbeg's uniqueness lies in its intense peat level (usually 50-55 ppm), yet it possesses astonishing floral and fruity sweetness, thanks to the distinctive design of the 'Purifier' on its stills.
As the core expression, Ardbeg Ten is consistently bottled at 46% ABV and is Non-chill filtered to preserve its natural oils and flavor compounds. This dedication to quality led to it being named 'World Whisky of the Year' by Jim Murray's Whisky Bible in 2008. For enthusiasts, Ardbeg is more than just a bottle of whisky; it represents a wild, untamed, and natural Scottish spirit.
