Bàgh Garbh

Inspired by one of Islay's most rugged bays, this travel retail exclusive showcases the depth and resilience of Bunnahabhain through an Amontillado sherry cask finish.

About

Bàgh Garbh {Baah GAR-uv} - meaning ‘Rugged Bay’ in Scots Gaelic - takes its name from one of Islay’s most elemental landscapes. A place where the Atlantic does not arrive gently, but with force - shaping the shoreline, carving the rock, and leaving its imprint on everything it touches. There is a raw honesty to this bay. Windswept, weathered, and ever-changing, it embodies a kind of enduring strength that cannot be rushed or refined away. It is this character that defines the spirit of Bàgh Garbh.
MATURATION JOURNEY

Matured for 13 years and finished in Amontillado sherry casks, this expression reflects both resilience and depth. The cask influence brings warmth and structure - layers of dried fruit, nuttiness and spice - while the distillery’s coastal signature remains ever-present, like sea air carried on the wind. This is a whisky shaped by contrast: rugged yet composed, powerful yet balanced.

Flavour Profile

Natural Colour

Amber gold, as nature intended. Without added colouring, every shade reflects the influence of time spent maruting in Amontillado casks.

Non-chill Filtered

Non-chill filtered to preserve the whisky's full depth of flavour, texture and character.

Matured for over a decade in our coastal warehouses. Finished in select Amontillado sherry casks, it delivers a rugged flavour profile - dry and nutty with notes of toasted almond, sea-kissed oak, and a firm, structured body.

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.
