Ok, how does one pronounce Ardbeg and Islay?
Does Ardbeg go something like - ARD-BEG? Or something like ARE-BAY?
And does Islay go something like - I - LAY?
Thanks!

Islay is pronounced "eye-la". Like "island" with the "nd".
Ardbeg I believe is pretty much like it's spelt, although I'm prepared to be corrected on that.

Oops, that should say "island" withOUT the "nd".
It's pronounced ArdBEG with stress on the second syllable. The same for BowMORE.
