Nestled in the rugged landscape of the Scottish Highlands, Ardmore Distillery stands as a bastion of traditional Scotch whisky. Established in 1898 by William Teacher, Ardmore has been crafting exceptional peated single malt whiskies for over a century, preserving the essence of a bygone era in whisky production.
At Ardmore, the commitment to traditional methods is paramount. The distillery is one of the few that still uses traditional wooden washbacks and direct-fired stills, a rarity in modern whisky making. This time-honored approach, combined with the use of local peat, imparts a distinct smokiness to Ardmore's whiskies, a characteristic cherished by peat aficionados.
The distillery's location near the Grampian Mountains contributes to the unique profile of its whiskies. The soft, peat-infused water from the Knockandy Hill and the rich, local barley give Ardmore's expressions a robust and full-bodied flavor, marked by notes of honey, spice, and the unmistakable Highland peat smoke.
Ardmore's core range, including the Ardmore Legacy and the Ardmore Traditional Cask, showcases the distillery's mastery in balancing peat with the complexity of Highland whisky. Each bottle from Ardmore is not just a whisky; it's a piece of Scottish heritage, offering a window into the soul of Highland whisky craftsmanship.
Discover the legacy of Ardmore, where each dram is a tribute to the enduring allure of peated Highland whisky, appealing to both long-time enthusiasts and newcomers to the world of Scotch.
