Ardmore distillery is a single malt Scotch whisky distillery, located in the village of Kennethmont, Aberdeenshire. The distillery is owned and operated by Beam Suntory, an American subsidiary of Suntory Holdings of Osaka, Japan. The distillery was built in 1898 by William Teacher's son, Adam, to secure fillings for their blend, Teacher's Highland Cream (of which it remains the principal component).

Ardmore distillery began to produce whisky for sale as a single malt on a regular basis only a short time ago. The main task remains the production of distillates for the much more successful blended whisky.

Used in blends: Teachers Highland Cream, Ballantine's.
