Inchgower 14 year old

Flora & Fauna

Complex and multifaceted, this Inchgower offers at least two typical characteristics of the distillery: a slightly petrol-like nose reminiscent of some Alsace white wines, and an oily texture. On the palate, it is very pleasant but also very changing: rich malty and caramelized notes give way to a surprising fruity freshness and honey notes, which extend to nutty flavors. A complete and surprising malt.
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 Inchgower distillery was founded in 1871 by Alexander Wilson, near the fishing port of Buckie, on the coast of the Moray Firth, between the towns of Banff in the East and Elgin in the West. It is one of the rare distilleries owned by the local community, which took over from the Wilson family when it went bankrupt in 1936. Inchgower is one of the lesser known distilleries and a large share of its production is used in the blends of the Diageo group, notably Johnnie Walker. Two versions of Inchgower have been bottled in the "Rare Malts" series in 1997 and 2004, but the 14 Year Old "Flora & Fauna" Inchgower is so far the only official bottling. Many versions of Inchgower are available from independent bottlers, including Berry Bros, Signatory Vintage and Gordon & Macphail. The traditional Inchgower specificities are the occasional petrol flavours (like in Alsatian wines), the oily body and the spicy notes, which can sometimes appear to be saline.
