Ardbeg

Ardbeg produces some of Scotlands most cherrished single malts, the 10yo is recognised as a flagship within the portfolio and also a benchmark for other distilleries. It seems incredible that this distillery's recent past was so turbulent, having neen mothballed for most of the 1980s. The style of the whisky is typically Islay, with big peat flavours to the fore. Diagio's taste map has the 10yo as one of the freshest and most smoky malts available.
