About this seasonal whisky
Orchard Cobbler is the third release in Nc’nean’s boundary-pushing and experimental Huntress series. Truly a one-of-a-kind limited edition whisky, in that the spirit used is only produced once a year when the distillers cross over from one distillation recipe to another.
Unlike most distilleries, Nc’nean run two different spirit runs each year, one for whisky set to be released at a younger age, and one set to be released after ten plus years.
The spirit matured for Huntress Orchard Cobbler comes from the distillation in the week after this spirit recipe is switched over - a time where cut points are changed and unusually high fruity compounds flood into the spirit. So fruity, that the whisky is named after one of the team’s favourite desserts.
About Nc'nean Huntress series
Our spring limited edition series, inspired by our namesake Neachneohain. An ancient Gaelic goddess known as a huntress, a protector of nature and for walking her own path. This series is centred around that ethos of discovery, and Nc’nean’s passion for hunting for unique flavours in whisky making.
