In September 2016 we invited contestants from around the globe to Islay – our remote Scottish island home, for the launch of the world’s most daring whisky challenge. Bringing to life Ardbeg’s untamed spirit, we took a group of contestants on an unforgettable odyssey into essential Islay.
Led by Distillery Manager Mickey Heads and survival expert Monty Halls, the ARDventurers spent three days from September 5 – 8, attempting to conquer the island’s rugged coastline, wild peat bogs, mist-capped hills and brooding lochs as they competed to be named the Ultimate ARDventurer.
