2025-03-18
Smell
The first sniff reveals complex aromas. Ripe fruits such as peach and apple dominate, accompanied by a hint of citrus fruit and forest honey. A slight alcoholic note is present, but not overpowering. Caramel and butter biscuit provide additional sweetness, while a hint of orange adds a fresh component.
Taste
The attack in the mouth is oily and syrupy, with an intense peach note reminiscent of a bomb. Sugary sweetness and vanilla combine with forest honey to create a harmonious overall picture. Interestingly, a slightly spicy cereal note emerges, reminiscent of rye, although there is no rye in the whisky.
Finish
The finish is characterised by light oak, accompanied by a spicy aftertaste. The bready notes and the return of stone fruit ensure a lasting impression.
Thoughts
The Nc'nean Organic 2019/2024 Cask Strength Batch GD06 is a whisky that shows that sustainability and flavour do not have to be opposites. With its fruity intensity, oily texture and spicy finish, it impresses and remains surprisingly balanced at just under 60%. The overall picture is harmonious and the whisky is simply fun to drink.
