Ardmore is one of the most heavily peated malts in the Eastern Highlands region, there peating level is 12 to 14 parts per million and our capacity, which we operate at, is 5.1 Mola. Almost all production goes to blended whisky especially Teacher's Highland Cream. Since its inception, Ardmore has been the malt, which produces the special character of Teacher’s. The distillery was built by William Teacher in 1898 and lies on the main Aberdeen to Inverness railway line at Kennethmont. The main purpose of the distillery was to provide malt for the Teacher’s blend, which it still does today. Only a few official bottlings have been released, one of which was to commemorate the distillery’s 100th anniversary in 1999. Some does get bottled as a single malt by independent bottlers.
