Nc'nean Quiet Rebels: Annabel Whisky (Includes Branded Glass)
In stock
Introducing the first in the Quiet Rebels series - Annabel. This series is all about the people who make Nc’nean what it is, a small team of eco-conscious drink fanatics on a mission to bring together a new generation of Scotch drinkers.
Named after their very own queen of spirits Annabel, who back in 2013 left her job as a consultant in London to found Nc’nean. After a trip around Scotland, plus years of research, fundraising and building, Annabel established a small distillery on her parents’ farm on the wild and beautiful Morvern peninsula. Her mission was to build a distillery which could lead the way in both innovation and sustainability, and one which could bring together a team of quiet rebels who shared those same values.
Annabel wanted to create a spirit which showcased some of their early flavour experiments. After rooting through the warehouse, she has picked a moreish combination of ex Bourbon and ex-Tokaji barrels, a Hungarian wine cask which Annabel favours for the sweet and velvety texture it brings to the Whisky. Together, they produce a richly perfumed spirit, with notes of floral almond biscotti, desiccated coconut and tropical fruits.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden honey with sunlit amber hues and a warm, crystalline glow.
Nose
Richly perfumed on the nose, floral almond biscotti and desiccated coconut ride a bright wave of tropical fruits. Subtle vanilla from the oak mingles with apricot-honey notes from the Tokaji influence, leaving a pastry-soft sweetness that hints at velvety richness to come.
Palate
Silky and full-bodied, the palate opens with creamy vanilla from the Bourbon barrels, then honeyed apricot and tropical fruit from the Tokaji and Hungarian cask. Velvety texture carries notes of floral almond biscotti and desiccated coconut, a gentle spice, and a supported sweetness that stays balanced. Luxuriously smooth, with a thoughtful oak-driven finish that lingers.
Finish
Long, velvety and perfumed, the finish cushions warmth with a honeyed glow of tropical fruits. Floral almond biscotti and desiccated coconut linger, echoing through toasted oak as Tokaji sweetness softens into orchard fruits and a gentle spice fade.
