Bowel Cancer Charity Lot Aberlour A'Bunadh Batch 57 - Bowel Cancer Australia

Meaning ‘the original’ in Gaelic, A’bunadh (Pronounced “a-boon-arh") is made in homage to Aberlour’s founder, James Fleming. A’bunadh is a whisky hand-made from start to finish with each batch being created to ensure a rich and complex flavour of moist raisin, and homemade fruit cake. It is bottled at cask strength from barrels ranging from five to 25 years in age, resulting in a robust and deeply intense, sherried whisky.

This lot has kindly been donated by Jade Williams for June’s featured charity auction, which is proudly supporting Bowel Cancer Australia.

The charity lots were organized by Brendan Moynihan who was diagnosed with Bowel Cancer in December 2022. For these charity lots, the full hammer price and a 10% buyer's premium being donated to Bowel Cancer Australia. Alternatively, you can donate directly through the fundraising page at https://www.mycause.com.au/p/346624/never2young-fundraiser-whisky-auction-bowel-cancer-awareness-month

What is Bowel Cancer?

Bowel cancer is Australia’s second deadliest cancer and the deadliest cancer for Australians aged 25-44. Shockingly, 15,531 people are diagnosed with bowel cancer each year, and it claims more lives than breast cancer or prostate cancer, affecting men and women almost equally. However, with early detection, almost 99% of cases can be successfully treated.
