Ardbeg Distillery - Isle of Islay, Scotland

In 1815, John MacDougall takes out a license, establishing Ardbeg Distillery. 23 years later, in 1838, Thomas Buchanan purchase the distillery for £1,800 though John’s son, Alexander, continues to manage it. It continues to be managed by the MacDougall family for generations until Hiram Walker buys it in 1977 for £19,000. In the 1980s, like many other distilleries, it closed due to dwindling production and suffered until 1997 when they opened for full production. Since, then, it’s become one of the top-producing distillery in the world. As you can see in the video, our tour took us into the storehouse for our tasting, which was absolutely amazing. We sipped on whiskys straight from the barrel while learning more about the maturation process for the different collections they are currently aging. We also were shown the four stills they now have on the property, as well as the empty barrel storage facility and the filling facility. TIP: Pay attention to the tour you book - they only give tours of the still house Monday-Friday. For more information and to plan your own trip to Islay: https://www.inspiruption.com/the-trav...
