Nc'nean Botanical Spirit

Nc'nean Botanical Spirit is based on the new-make spirit produced using their "Young" whiskey recipe and this is redistilled with botanicals in a copper pot still using the same steep and boil process used to make gin, hence Nc'nean take their spirit to a gin distillery for this second distillation.

Annabel says "The funny thing about making a botanical spirit, is when you start with new make you have to have a super heavy botanical recipe, you just physically need a lot of them, way way more than a typical gin recipe because they're competing with something that already has lots of flavour." Nc'nean's botanical recipe was inspired by Scotland's west coast and its development was helped by Heriot-Watt University. It comprises 1o botanicals: juniper, coriander, angelica, liquorice, chamomile, grapefruit, bog myrtle, thyme, sorrel, and heather.
