A 'partially' triple-distilled Speysider, this single malt from the Benrinnes distillery was bottled at 15 years for the Flora and Fauna series.
Slightly doughy. Toffee chip biscuits. Floral.
Rounded, good sweetness. A whiff of peat.
Barley, biscuity, slightly drying.

This is a very good whisky with a full body and a sweet taste. One of my favourites!
I bought 3 bottles last year after a visit. Now it's all gone and you're sold out! :( Where can I get some more?
I poured the whisky in to a Glencairn Glass and added a teaspoon of water and left the whisky to develop for ten minutes in the glass. The whisky is an amber colour and is very slightly syrupy when rolling around the glass. On the nose the whisky is floral. Hints of smoke, toffee, Grandmothers pie dough and good quality sherry coming through. The flavour has a complex sweetness ,hints of smoke and more sweetness again almost like a high grade Oloroso, then drying and smooth . The finish is long and drying with hints of oak and a citrus influence.
Since I discovered this on a visit to Royal Lochnavar Distillery I have bought far too many bottles. Simply a great whisky for me
The best Flora & Fauna bottlings i've ever tasted!
