Nc'nean Quiet Rebels Amy, 48.5%

The recipe for this whisky made from 100% organic Scottish barley combines STR red wine and bourbon casks, with a maury (a type of vin doux naturel fortified wine from the Languedoc region of France) cask finish. It’s like salivating in a candy store; rhubarb-andcustard sour candies, damson, and lemon zest aromas. Red currant, perky pepperiness, more sour candies, and an intriguing herbal bitterness on the palate, with caraway seeds, dried citrus, pineapple, and red grape. The short to medium finish offers fading fruit. (Release date: 1/25; 10,132 bottles worldwide).
