The aromatic palette of this pure Speyside whisky unfolds with fresh citrus notes (lemon, yellow grapefruit, clementine), orchard fruits (apple, pear), and exotic fruits, well-balanced by warmer aromas of dried fruits, milk caramel, and vanilla, with a subtle but well-present woody undertone. Particularly harmonious and silky. 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.

The Distillery
The distillery was founded in 1878 under the name Mill of Rothes. It is one of the four distilleries located near the town of Rothes (Glen Grant, Speyburn, GlenRothes). The capacity of the distillery is 1,500,000 litres per year and most of the production is dedicated to the J&B blend. Its bottling is relatively rare and there are only a few official versions: 12 Year Old Flora & Fauna Series, 21 Year Old Special Releases and 1996 Manager's Choice Single Cask.
