Today I’m reviewing one of the most remote and mysterious whiskies in Scotland — the Abhainn Dearg 10 Year Old from the Isle of Lewis. This is the first core age-stated release from this tiny Outer Hebridean distillery, and it comes with a story as wild as the landscape it hails from.
In this video, we’ll talk about:
What makes Abhainn Dearg so unique and hard to find
How this 10 year old spirit compares to other island whiskies
Tasting notes and final verdict (is it worth your time and money?)
With its rugged Highland attitude, handmade production, and unfiltered island character — is this a hidden gem or a wild whisky too old school for modern palates?
