Nc'nean Huntress Lemon Meadow Organic Single Malt Scotch Whiskey 700mL

Huntress Lemon Meadow is the fourth release in Nc'nean's experimental Huntress series, the limited edition from the organic distillery on the remote Morvern peninsula in Scotland's West Highlands.

This one is a fermentation experiment. Alongside its usual Anchor and Fermentis strains, Nc'nean used a yeast derived from French sparkling wine production, and it gives the spirit a buttery, citrusy, biscuity character. It was then matured in the distillery's house-style casks: 56% shaved, toasted and re-charred STR red wine casks, 42% ex-bourbon barrels and 2% Oloroso sherry casks, filled in April 2017 and April 2019 and bottled in February 2025. Expect lemon sorbet, fresh chamomile and all-butter shortbread, with green apple, hay and brioche. Whisky Advocate rated it 93 points and VinePair 92.

Just 5,729 bottles were produced. Bottled at 48.5% ABV (97 proof), non-chill filtered and at natural colour, in a 700 mL bottle presented in the Huntress tube. Made from 100% organic Scottish barley.
