Conclusion:
The first seasonal release from Nc'Nean's Quiet Rebels series – a series dedicated to the team of eco-conscious people that produce these whiskies – this whisky celebrates Annabel. Eager to show off the distillery's early flavour experiments, Annabel has chosen a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-Tokaji barrels, creating notes of floral almond biscotti, desiccated coconut and tropical fruits. Beautiful presentation by Nc'nean, the bottle and packaging is on top like always.
