About
Meaning “the rough seas” in Scots Gaelic, An Cuan Garbh {An Coo-ann Gaa-riv} represents the second stage of the Westering Home journey - the crossing between where we begin and where we long to return. Inspired by the untamed waters surrounding Islay, this chapter speaks to movement, endurance and transformation. As the spirit matures beside the coast, time and environment leave their mark, layering fruit, spice and maritime character into the whisky over years of quiet evolution. There is strength in this balance - richness tempered by freshness, warmth lifted by sea air. An Cuan Garbh No.3 captures the feeling of pressing onward through uncertain waters, guided always by the promise of home on the horizon.

MATURATION JOURNEY
Distilled on 8th December 2010, this 15 Year Old distillery exclusive dram was fully matured in a single refill sherry butt to reveal the depth that time and restraint can bring to a peated spirit. The gentle influence of the refill sherry cask allows the whisky’s smoky character to evolve naturally over years of maturation, softening and integrating while retaining clarity and structure. Balanced yet powerful, An Cuan Garbh No.3 is a whisky shaped by endurance - where smoke, sherry and coastal character come together with remarkable depth and composure.

Our Difference
Our Difference
UNPEATED ISLAY
Unlike other distilleries on Islay, Bunnahabhain is known for its iconic, unpeated Islay Single Malt Whisky.
A ROAD LESS TRAVELLED
Situated on the Sound of Islay, Bunnahabhain is the most northerly distillery, only accessible by boat until 1960. Now by single track road, it is an adventure for whisky enthusiasts.
TALLEST ON ISLAY
Bunnahabhain's pear-shaped stills are the tallest on Islay. Their unusually long swan necks promote a lighter, delicate spirit character as heavier flavour compounds can't reach the summit.
UNCOMPROMISING SPIRIT
Non-chill filtered with no added colour, Bunnahabhain is a robust, oily spirit that stands up to full maturation in sherry and bottlings at cask strength.
Our whisky is known for being unpeated, natural colour and non-chillfiltered.
