The Bunnahabhain Abhainn Araig is a limited-edition single malt whisky released for Feis Ile 2022, celebrating the waters of Islay. Abhainn Araig, meaning "Araig River" in Gaelic, refers to a river on Islay that feeds into the Margadale River, which is Bunnahabhain's primary water source. This special expression is presented at 50.8% ABV, free from chill filtration, and has a natural cask-imparted color.
Matured in a combination of Pedro Ximenez, bourbon, and Oloroso casks, the whisky offers aromas of tobacco, milk chocolate, and ginger, followed by a velvety rich palate of milk chocolate, dried raspberries, honey, macadamia nuts, toffee, and cinnamon. The finish is long and sumptuous, filled with cinnamon-spiced toffee.
This whisky is a marriage of ex-bourbon and ex-Pedro Ximenez sherry, octave casks, which were specially selected for their highly concentrated sherry content. Abhainn Araig is a limited release created for Feis Ile 2022, bringing the festival experience to whisky lovers worldwide, allowing them to enjoy Bunnahabhain's unique offerings and experiences.
