There have been many ups and downs on Ardbeg’s two hundred year journey. It has been called “as close to perfection as makes no difference” by whisky connoisseurs. Ardbeg is revered around the world as peaty, smoky, complex single malt the Islay single malt whiskies. It is a whisky that is worshipped around the world. In the past ten years, six different Ardbeg expressions have won prestigious titles including World Whisky of the Year, Scotch Whisky of the Year and World’s Best Single Malt.

Established in 1815, Ardbeg is revered by connoisseurs around the world as the peatiest, smokiest and most complex of all the Islay malts. *

During the 1980s and 1990s, Ardbeg suffered from an uncertain future and it was not until the brand was purchased by The Glenmorangie Company in 1997 that the distillery was saved from extinction. Since then, the distillery has risen like a phoenix and today Ardbeg is well established as a niche, cult malt, with a passionate following.

*Ardbeg boasts a peat level of 50-60ppm, the highest level in the business (with the exception of a few limited releases which exceed 100ppm).

Ardbeg’s purifier on the Lyne arm of the spirit still adds fruity floral sweetness and complexity to the spirit. Despite its smokiness, Ardbeg is renowned for its delicious sweetness, a phenomenon that has affectionately become known as

“the peaty paradox”.

The most phenolic malt in the business, soft pure water from our own water source (Loch Uigeadail), washbacks made of Oregon pine adding waxiness to the spirit, non chill-filtered for maximum flavor, using 1st and 2nd fill casks only for maturation, plus dedication and passion. Making Ardbeg requires a special kind of chemistry.

Ardbeg Uigeadail was crowned the World Whisky of the Year 2009 and Supernova as Scotch Whisky of the Year in 2010. Meanwhile, Ardbeg Corryvreckan wins World's Best Single Malt Whisky at the World Whisky Awards in 2010 and Galileo in 2013. The legend goes on.

Since saved from extinction in 1997, the legacy of the whisky was safeguarded by the formation of The Committee in 2000 from thousands of Ardbeg followers across the globe keen to ensure “the doors of Ardbeg never close again”. Ardbeg Committee now has a worldwide membership of over 120,000 aficionados across 130 countries.
