Abhainn Dearg Single Malt

Founded in 2008 by Marko Tayburn, Abhainn Dearg Distillery is a Scottish Islands distillery located at Carnish near Uig on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. Renowned for its locally grown and malted barley, the distillery matures its spirits in dunnage warehouses close to the Atlantic shore, then bottles by hand on-site. Emphasizing sustainability, the leftover draff is fed to a local herd of Highland cattle. Equipped with just two very small stills—each fitted with a round wooden worm tub—Abhainn Dearg holds the distinction of being the smallest-capacity malt whisky distillery in Scotland, offering a truly authentic island whisky experience.
