Nc'nean Huntress is an organic Highland single malt Scotch whisky from the Nc'nean Distillery on the west coast of Scotland. The 2022 release was made from 100% organic Scottish barley using three yeast varieties including Anchor, Fermentis, and rum yeasts, and matured in 61% STR red wine casks and 39% ex-bourbon casks. It's bottled at 48.5% ABV without chill filtration in natural color.
The palate serves up apple pie, cherry tart, baked plum, Jaffa cakes, lime, and gentle spices. It has good body, a creamy texture, and plenty of juicy fruits, with a dry finish of peppermint tea, summer berries, and candied peel.
Medium. Darkly toasted brioche, with more honey and toffee apple. A hint of lemon meringue pie. Blackberry, red grape, and strong espresso coffee. A little grassy spice.
