One of the newest scottish distilleries, founded in 2017 is Nc'Nean, a rather unpronounceable name, that comes from "Neachneohain", who was known as the Queen of Spirits in a Gaelic legend. The legend says "she was a huntress, a fierce protector of nature and never afraid to walk her own path". This is why the whole strategy of this distillery is organic barley and renewal energy and resources. It is a 100% environmental friendly. Having said all that, i have had some fair share of organic whiskies before and i wasn't impressed. This one... it did impress me. Bottled at 46%abv, the whisky has this peach juice color. On the nose, it was absolutely surprising. A lot of stewed fruits; stewed apples, sider, malted barley and the most perfectly accurate pineapple pie aroma i have ever nosed, it took me through Memory Lane right to my childhood. Stewed grapefruits and vanilla powder. On the palate, it was not complex nor amazing, but fairly good and there was a new tasting note for me, it was... QUAKER OATMEAL. You should understand something first: in Ecuador where i live, Quaker Oatmeal is super popular as a drink used in lunches and breakfast. Starts pretty sugary, then stewed apples, sider and pepper. It also had this salty popcorn flavor. All this happened in the first sip, since everything that happen after that first sip, was Quaker Oatmeal. Aftertaste did not follow the same rythm and i found it to be a little short, but very well delivered. A nice Hay note, a dim but pleasant smoke puff, a little sulphuric profile. There is some burnt hay and vanilla powder. Overall, i loved this whisky. It was super interesting, specially for a 3yo dram. For a 46%abv whisky, no alcohol was ever felt, this has been beautifully crafted with love. Having said that, it is not complex, it doesn't have a long aftertaste, but the existing notes in this spirit are actually very clean and sympathic. My score for it is a solid 88 over 100, and i will be looking closely for expressions of this distillery in the next years, to study its development. Sláinte!
