Blair Athol Flora & Fauna Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old
In stock
Flora and Fauna, nicknamed by the late whisky writer, Michael Jackson, was a themed series of distillery only single malt whisky releases. Each distillery was given a particular creature as its symbol, which is elegantly displayed on each bottle's beautiful label.
Blair Athol distillery stands at the gateway to the Scottish Highlands in the picturesque town of Pitlochry, Perthshire. From the water of the Allt Dour burn comes a whisky with a mellow deep-toned aroma, a strong fruity flavour and a smooth finish – an irreplaceable contributor to the Bell's Blend, one of the most popular blended whiskies in the UK.
A full, rich and spicy 12 year old single malt whisky. Slightly dry on the finish with lots of sherry notes and a slight hint of minty herbal notes. An interesting whisky with an unusual sweet aftertaste. Blair Athol works best served in a traditional whisky glass, neat or with a drop of water to better hold it's sweetness.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep burnished amber with copper-gold glow and mahogany hues, a warm, caramel-tinted shade.
Nose
A mellow, deep-toned nose of dark fruit and sherry, braided with warm spice and a whisper of minty herbal notes. Subtle oak and caramel add polished sweetness and an inviting, elegant depth.
Palate
Full, rich and spicy on the palate, with sherry-driven depth and generous fruit. A minty herbal lift threads through dried fruit notes, finishing slightly dry with a long, unusually sweet aftertaste.
Finish
Dry, full-bodied and gently spicy, the finish is shaded with sherry warmth and a whisper of minty herbal notes. It tapers with an unusual, sweet afterglow that lingers gracefully.
