Arbikie opens pre-orders for first single malt scotch

Arbikie Highland Estate Distillery opens pre-orders for The Arbikie Single Malt following private tastings at World Economic Forum in Davos.

Arbikie Highland Estate Distillery has opened pre-orders for its first-ever single malt Scotch whisky following invitation-only tastings during the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The independent Scottish farm distillery presented The Arbikie Single Malt to global leaders, innovators and decision-makers at the exclusive event in February 2026.

The single malt is produced entirely on the Arbikie Estate on Scotland’s east coast using the distillery’s field-to-bottle philosophy.

Every stage from growing to bottling takes place on the family-owned farm.

“This is not intended as a large-scale launch,” said Iain Stirling, co-founder of Arbikie Distillery. “Davos was the right setting for an initial introduction, and the response has been hugely encouraging. We’re excited to build on that momentum as we move towards launch.”

The distillery unveiled three ultra-limited editions during the tastings.

The Wild One represents Arbikie’s most exclusive release with only 100 bottles available globally. It uses wild, spontaneous fermentation to capture the estate’s raw character.

The Journey comprises 500 sets worldwide featuring whiskies aged from 10 to 18 years. Each annual release will be finished in different casks including bourbon, port, rum, burgundy, cognac, calvados, sauternes and mizunara.

The Signature serves as the foundation of the single malt program. This 10-year-old expression is matured in bourbon casks.

TPC, a global leadership and strategy organization, hosted Arbikie at Davos following the distillery’s earlier presentations on sustainability and regenerative farming in Finland.

“Following international presentations on our distilling approach, we were invited by TPC of Singapore to take part in Davos. It provided an opportunity to introduce The Arbikie Single Malt in a global setting, and to begin a wider conversation around the whisky,” commented John Stirling, co-founder.

The launch marks a significant milestone for the distillery, which has built its reputation on award-winning rye whisky, gin and vodka.

Arbikie recently won Most Sustainable Whisky Distillery in Scotland at the World Whiskies Awards.

Pre-orders for The Arbikie Single Malt Whisky are now available through the distillery’s website.
