“If you want the most intense smokiness, Ardbeg is the answer.”

Founded in 1815 on the southern coast of Islay, Scotland, Ardbeg is renowned as the world’s most intensely peated whisky. Its profile of dense smoke, sea breeze, tar, moss, and sea salt perfectly captures the wild depth of Islay, yet it maintains a surprisingly delicate and complex balance amidst such intensity.

As a brand under the LVMH Group that blends tradition with bold innovation—even conducting experiments by sending whisky into space—its annual limited editions are highly coveted by collectors worldwide.

Ardbeg 10 Year Old is the flagship expression that boasts a powerful yet sophisticated equilibrium. Matured in Bourbon casks and bottled without artificial coloring or chill-filtration, it is often called the “purest expression of Ardbeg.” With layers of heavy peat smoke, coastal air, lemon zest, toffee, and earthiness, it serves as the definitive textbook for experiencing the true essence of Islay whisky.
