Glann ar Mor distillery is a French whisky distillery located in Pleubian, Côtes-d'Armor, Brittany.

History

Glann ar Mor was created in 1997 by Celtic Whisky Compagnie, with the first single malt whisky produced in December 1999. In its present form, Glann ar Mor has been operational since June 2005, bottling its first unpeated single malt in late 2008. In November 2009, the first peated single malt (about 30-35 ppm of phenol) was sold under the brand of Kornog ("West Wind" in Breton). The distillery is located on the seafront (Glann ar Mor means "At the edge of the sea" in Breton[1]). Bottles feature the Héaux de Bréhat lighthouse.[1]
