Ardbeg

A distillery whose history can be  traced back to 1794, but was closed from  the early to late 1980's. This classic waterside distillery is  now enjoying a great revival after re-opening with major investment from new owners - Glenmorangie Plc.

House Style: Lots of peat, smoky, salty & robust

One of my personal favourites, full of peat and body. Perfect to share with friends over a civilised evening of discussion and generally putting the world to right.
