Scotland’s Wild West Coast Meets The Cellars

Join us at The Cellars for a rare evening with Ardnamurchan Distillery, one of Scotland’s most exciting young producers. Tucked away on Scotland’s rugged west coast, Ardnamurchan crafts whiskies defined by sea air, sustainability, and bold experimentation.

We’re honored to welcome 𝐉𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐬𝐨𝐧, 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 & 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐭 𝐀𝐫𝐝𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧, who will guide us through a lineup that showcases the distillery’s adventurous spirit. At Ardnamurchan, Jenny is deeply involved in shaping how the distillery tells its story, from the rugged, remote character of the Ardnamurchan peninsula, to the sustainable distilling practices, and creative cask finishing experiments. She is passionate about education, knowledge sharing, and the intersection of tradition and innovation in Scotch Whisky.

The whisky itself reflects this rugged setting. Ardnamurchan releases combine peated and unpeated malt, matured in both bourbon and sherry casks, producing whiskies that balance maritime salt and smoke with honey, citrus, and orchard fruit. In just a decade, they’ve earned a cult following for innovation and quality.

Indri DRU, bottled at 57.2% ABV, is a cask strength expression from Indri, where selected ex-Bourbon Barrels are handpicked and married together by our master blender to offer you an experience that will awaken your senses.

In Sanskrit, ‘Dru’ means wood, tree, or a vessel made of wood. In ancient Indian mythology, Dru was a vessel in which ‘soma’ (a drink) was collected and offered to the Gods.

Indri Single Malt Indian whisky is distilled and matured in the subtropical climate of Northern India. Angels here are indeed greedy as we lose 10 to 12% every year due to evaporation. Yet, this accelerated evaporation helps mature the whisky much faster and gives it a totally different dimension.

Non Chill-Filtered & No Color Added

𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐈𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐍𝐜’𝐍𝐞𝐚𝐧
This is a rare chance to meet Annabel Thomas, the woman who left her London career to follow a dream: to build a whisky distillery from scratch on Scotland’s rugged West Coast. With no blueprint except her vision, she spent four years raising funds, laying bricks, and installing stills until Nc’nean was born in 2017.

Every sip of Nc’nean carries Annabel’s fingerprint: elegant, experimental, and deeply respectful of nature. This is whisky that honors tradition but refuses to be defined by it.

This is your chance to sip, savor, and chat directly with the woman changing the future of Scotch whisky.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐮𝐩

𝐍𝐜’𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐥𝐭 𝟒𝟔% – Elegant and fruity, Nc’nean’s flagship whisky is easy-going and delicious however you drink it, with flavors of citrus, peach, apricot and spice. Tasting notes include lemon, peach, apricot and spiced rye bread.

𝐍𝐜’𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐬𝐤 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡 𝟓𝟗.𝟓% – The cask strength expression of Nc’nean’s signature recipe, this is organic single malt in its most natural form, made from organic Scottish barley whose natural yields and rich soils contribute depth of flavor.

𝐍𝐜’𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐧 “𝐀𝐨𝐧” 𝐒𝐓𝐑 𝟓𝟗% – Aon means one in Gaelic and represents our collection of ‘Single Cask’ bottlings. Each cask has been handpicked because it is delicious, unique, and unrepeatable.

𝐍𝐜’𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬 “𝐋𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐰” – The fourth release in Nc’nean’s experimental Huntress series. They use a yeast derived from a well-known French sparkling wine production, one that is rarely used in Scotch whisky. It brings citrusy, biscuity notes – flavors of lemon sorbet, fresh chamomile, and all butter shortbread.

Annabel is excited to meet whisky lovers at the Mansion and share her stories of inspiration and the development of Nc’nean while leading us on a fun and informative tasting of these amazing expressions. There are no refunds due to limited seating.

Your ticket purchase also gets you a $25 credit towards the purchase of a bottle.
