Nc'nean Botanical Spirit Organic

L'explorateur du Gout

Awarded Eurofeuille certification, Nc'nean Botanical Spirit Organic is a botanical liqueur made in Scotland. It comes from an organic whisky distillery founded by Annabel Thomas in the West Highlands. The distillery is certified organic and BCorp certified (a global organic and ethical label). Its name is a tribute to the Celtic goddess Neachneohain, protector of nature (and don't panic, it's pronounced "nac'nean").

Production

On a base of 100% organic barley malt brandy from the distillery, a maceration of ten plants (some of which are endemic to Scotland) is carried out: bog myrtle, coriander, juniper, fresh grapefruit peel, chamomile, thyme, heather, sorrel, angelica, licorice. An addition of syrup completes this herbaceous liqueur.

Tasting

Aromatic and soothing, Nc’nean Botanical Spirit Bio provides a sweetness of orange blossom marshmallow on the attack, confirmed on the palate with notes of barley, chamomile, almond, juniper berry and wildflowers. A hint of salt on the finish. As a digestif or in a cocktail.
