Ardbeg

Ardbeg stands on the south coast of the Scottish island of Islay. Whisky was made here from 1798, and commercial production began in 1815. The distillery closed in 1981 and was reopened by Glenmorangie in 1997; it has been part of LVMH since 2004.

Ardbeg is known for heavily peated single malt. Its fan club, the Ardbeg Committee, has more than 200,000 members.
