At the Nc’nean distillery in the Highlands, they follow the path of Neachneohain, the Gaelic queen of spirits and guardian of nature. For the ‘Malted Teacake’ edition, a special Belgian ale yeast was used, which lends the distillate an exceptional malty depth. Maturation took place in a precise blend of 56% STR wine casks, 42% ex-bourbon barrels and a small proportion of Oloroso sherry casks, which gives the organic barley a complex, structured aroma.

Only 343 bottles contain a whisky bottled exclusively for the German market, a whisky never before available here: This is Nc’nean’s Calvados premiere in Germany. Despite its cask strength of 60.1% ABV, the single malt from a French oak cask unfolds silky notes of apple strudel, vanilla buttercream, and cedarwood.

Nc’nean is revolutionising sustainable whisky production from the wild and romantic coast of the Morvern Peninsula. The women-run Highland distillery uses only organic Scottish barley, bottles in recycled glass bottles, relies 100 per cent on renewable energy – and has painstakingly achieved exemplary net zero status.

The Nc’nean Aon – STR Cask #18-393 was bottled from a single STR Red Wine Cask (STR = ‘scraped’ or ‘shaved’, ‘toasted’, ‘recharred’). This single cask offers the opportunity to taste one of the most important ingredients of the Nc’nean recipe in its purest form – with delicious notes of candied ginger, spiced apricots and blackberry jam.
