Ardbeg’s core range has never been so accessible.
The Ardbeg Distillery is arguably one of the greatest distilleries on Earth. It produces one of the most peated Scotch Whiskies. The distillery was started in the early 18th century on the south coast of the isle of Islay, Argyll and Bute, Scotland, and is now owned by Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy. During the years it was closed and reopened several times, as the majority of other distilleries in Scotland, and changed owners many times; however it has never lost the genuine devotion of producing The Ultimate Islay Malt.
Ardbeg The Three Monsters of Smoke Gift Set is the ultimate gift set for the lover of Islay Scotch Whiskies in your life (Is it you?). Don’t be scared off by the horror aesthetic on the box, though, these are the monsters that can’t hurt you. In fact, all they wreak is flavor. Ardbeg An Oa (46.6% ABV) is an impeccable Single Malt with plenty of that signature Ardbeg peat. Ardbeg Original 10 Year Old (46% ABV) is an Islay classic that was once adorned with the modest title of Whisky of the Year. Ardbeg Wee Beastie (47.4% ABV) might be “a little monster” but it sure delivers sharp flavors and serious smoke of a big one.
