Ardmore is not widely known as a single malt. With its pungent peaty taste, Ardmore has always been a vital element in a famous and distinguished blended Scotch Whisky, Teachers Highland Cream.
Ardmore comes from a distillery set deep in the hills of
Aberdeenshire, close to the village of Kennethmont. The rolling
hills in this area are covered with fertile farmland. The
elegant National Trust Leith Hall is situated on the outskirts
of Kennethmont and the main railway line from Inverness to
Aberdeen runs beside the distillery itself.
It was William Teacher’s son, Adam who organised the
construction of Ardmore in 1898. These were the years when
there was a boom in the whisky industry. Over the intervening
years Ardmore has continued to prosper and is now one of the
larger and most modern Scotch Whisky distilleries, with a
total capacity reaching some three million litres. |
