Rather austere at first, this single malt aged in Bourbon casks reveals itself fresh and light with good aeration. The spicy character and pronounced notes of dried fruits from the "new make" are easily recognizable. Its cereal and fresh fruit notes wrapped in a touch of caramel make it a single malt for all occasions.A must-have for Scotch whisky connoisseurs, the so-called "Flora & Fauna" range is little known to the general public. Launched in the 1990s by United Distillers & Vintners, this series was originally intended to showcase distilleries that did not bottle under their own name. There were also non-reduced versions until the 2000s. The complete collection comprises 26 references, released over time, some of which are now discontinued and have become true collectors' items. The paternity of the name "Flora & Fauna" in reference to the animals and plants depicted on the various labels is attributed to the whisky writer and critic Michael Jackson.
