Meaning 'Araig River' in Scots Gaelic, this velvety rich dram is inspired by the waters of Islay. Created to celebrate Fèis Ìle 2022, this whisky has been matured in ex-Bourbon and PX sherry octave casks to create an unpeated, sherried, bold and complex dram.
Abhainn Araig or ‘Araig River’ in English, is a river located on our beautiful isle of Islay. This feeds in to the Margadale River, the pure spring water source for all of our Bunnahabhain whisky. The Araig water is vital to the production process at the distillery, feeding cooling water for the condensers.
Abhainn Araig is a marriage of Bunnahabhain spirit that has been matured in ex-Bourbon casks and ex-Pedro Ximenez sherry, octave casks, made from the finest specially seasoned European oak.
This special, limited festival whisky is quintessentially 'Bunnahabhain' - unpeated, sherried, bold and complex. Bottled with natural colour, non-chillfiltered and at an ABV of 50.8%.
