Nestled in Scotland’s Inner Hebrides sits the Queen. She’s a 239-square mile stretch of whisky drinkers’ nirvana, also known as the Island of Islay. Her peat filled soil and grassy covered rock outcroppings have been home to several whisky distilleries for centuries. One of them is the Ardbeg. It sits due east of the Gaelic isle’s major port, Ellen, in the diminutive town of Argyll. People have been ordering drams of its finest whiskies on and off since 1815.
