Clynelish Flora & Fauna Single Malt Scotch Whisky Miniature 14 Year Old · 1990 Vintage
Out of 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.
Gradually as distilleries were commercialised, closed or sold, the range of Flora and Fauna contracted, leaving these select remaining bottles collectable. Most often blended, whisky from each of these distilleries is rarely bottled as single malt, making each bottle from this collection even more rare.
A rare Flora and Fauna miniature from the very first batch.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden amber with a warm honey sheen and subtle coppery undertones.
Nose
Waxy citrus and sea-salt mingle with a refined sherry sweetness. Dried fruit such as raisin, fig and date sit alongside honeyed vanilla, toasted almond and a whisper of cacao. Maritime oak adds a polished, age-warm touch to the aroma.
Palate
Silky, waxy and generously mouth-coating, this Clynelish delivers fruit-forward depth with sherry influence. Orange marmalade and baked apple mingle with dried fig, toasted almond and cocoa, drifted by vanilla sweetness. A subtle maritime edge and light peppery spice give a saline lift, carrying into a long, refined finish with oak and cinnamon notes.
Finish
Long, refined finish with waxy, maritime notes fading into honeyed orange peel, dried fruit and a touch of oak spice. The sherry influence lends a soft nuttiness and gentle sweetness that lingers gracefully, leaving a mouthwatering warmth that coats the palate with mineral depth and subtle vanilla.
