Benrinnes 15 Year Old Flora and Fauna
Although it has long been highly prized by blenders - being one of a select few malts rated as 'first class' for blending purposes - Benrinnes was only officially bottled for the first time as a single malt in its own right in 1991, when Diageo forerunners United Distillers released a 15 year old expression as part of the Flora and Fauna series. A 'partially' triple-distilled Speysider, this single malt from the Benrinnes distillery was bottled at 15 years for the Flora and Fauna series.

Nose: Biscuity cereal notes and the scent of banana underlie the initial nose of ginger, burnt sugar, cherries and honey. A drop of water intensifies the ginger snap biscuit notes with a hint of cinnamon, and soft highland peat smoke.
Palate: Light caramelised sugar, toasted barley, and warming, light peat smoke are followed by sweet vanilla custard. Water releases notes of pink peppercorn, and dried fruit flavours (raisin and candid orange peel).
Finish: Light with soft peat smoke, lingering pepper and toasted almonds with a well-balanced dry mouth feel.
