About Ardmore
A large Aberdeenshire distillery founded in 1898 to supply the growing Teacher's blended Scotch brand. Unusually peated for an eastern Highland malt — the 'Ardmore Legacy' and 'Traditional' bottlings are both light-smoke profiles that offer a gentler entry to peated whisky than Islay.
