Abhainn Dearg
Arguably Scotland’s most remote distillery, Abhainn Dearg, which means Red River, is perched on the western edge of the Isle of Lewis with the next stop being North America. Its whisky is a reflection of its environment and the tenacity of its owner and distiller, Mark Tayburn, who set out to create a rugged whisky that could only be distilled on Lewis. Featuring the most unique shaped stills in Scotland that are based upon illicit stills once found on the isles, Abhainn Dearg produces a style of whisky rarely seen. The handcrafted nature of the distillation means that every drop is precious and the team have gone so far as to grow barley on Lewis for the first time in living memory.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I bid on the auctions?
You’ll need an account with us to place bids in any auction. Registration takes 60 seconds and there’s a small £5.00 registration fee, payable by credit or debit card. Once paid, you will be registered and can place bids in the auction immediately. The registration fee helps us ensure you’re a real person and a genuine bidder.
Why does the timer extend on a lot?
In the interest of fairness, any bids placed in the final five minutes of a particular lot will extend the end time of that Lot by 15 minutes. We believe in giving our customers a fair amount of time to increase their bid should they wish. Last second sniping isn’t in the spirit of our auctions and by using this system there is no benefit to doing so.
