Bunnahabhain Abhainn Araig F Is Le 2022 Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

Meaning 'Araig River' in Scots Gaelic, this velvety rich dram is inspired by the waters of Islay. Created to celebrate F is le 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 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.

These highly concentrated Octave casks were hand-selected to push the boundaries of sherry maturation. Not all whiskies stand up to full maturation in sherry casks, let alone specially seasoned octaves. Bunnahabhain, however, really stands up to this challenge.

This special, limited festival whisky is quintessentially 'Bunnahabhain' - unpeated, sherried, bold and complex. Bottled with natural colour, non-chillfiltered and with an abv of 50.8%.

Tasting Notes:

Taste: A velvety rich texture , initially creamy milk chocolate then sweet raisins and dried raspberries. As the PX develops balsamic vinegar and honeyed macadamias come through.

Finish: Deep and rich, with dark toffee and a final spicy burst of cinnamon.
