Nc’nean Huntress 2023 Single Malt - Woodland Candy

Introducing the eagerly anticipated second release from their spring series of whiskies, Huntress. This series is all about the ethos of discovery, innovation and the ongoing pursuit of delicious flavors in whiskey making. This 2023 release, Woodland Candy, is bold and creamy with flavors of buttery toffee, forest fruits and a touch of herbal spice. Flavors that will transport you to the ancient mossy woodlands of the wild and magical west coast of Scotland. This is the first Nc’nean whiskey to feature a special four-yeast recipe. 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. This can result in all sorts of brilliant flavours, with the introduction of red and white wine yeasts here adding a riot of unique flavor profiles.

Annabel Thomas started Nc’nean to change the way the world thinks about Scotch. Her mission was to create a whisky which could exist in harmony with this planet we call home. After leaving her job in London in 2013, she spent four years raising funds and building the distillery from the ground up on the west coast of Scotland. Distilling since 2017 their single malt is their first whisky on the market. They use organic Scottish barley in a distillery powered by renewable energy and recycle 99.97% of their waste. Bottled in a 100% recycled clear glass bottle.
