Nc’nean Huntress 2022 Single Malt – Spring Release

Introducing Nc’nean’s first spring seasonal release from their new series of single malts, Huntress. This series brings to light Nc’nean’s ongoing pursuit of new flavours in whisky making and their love for innovation. Unusual to scotch whisky, the addition of yeast traditionally used in rum production brings out a rich minerality alongside delectable flavours of tropical fruits and honeycomb in this impressive 2022 release. The right yeast is fundamental to making whisky, creating not just alcohol, but also the most intriguing flavours. While many distillers experiment when it comes to casks and some experiment with barley, Nc’nean are among a smaller group to experiment with yeasts, which can result in all sorts of brilliant flavours. This series is all about the ethos of discovery, of walking one’s own path, and is inspired by Neacheohain, an ancient huntress. She was the Queen of Spirits in ancient Gaelic legend, a goddess of wild animals, the hills the rivers and the moon.
