Rosebank (silent) Flora & Fauna 1st Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old
Out of stock
This is the first edition of the Rosebank Flora and Fauna release, which was issued in nice high quality wooden box.
A sad loss to the world of whisky when this Lowland distillery finally closed its doors in 1993 and this is one of the few official bottles still available and it is a superb example of old style Lowland that the current duo of Auchentoshan or Glenkinchie do not come anywhere close to emulating.
Classic triple distilled delicate & elegant lost Lowland.
95 points Jim Murray's Whisky Bible
"The kind of whisky that brings a tear to the eye..for many a reason."

Tasting Notes
Colour
Pale golden straw with a delicate sunlit honey glow and a hint of amber.
Nose
Rich barley and cereal, hot oats & honey, coconut biscuits, freshly cut straw, subtle floral notes and lemon curd.
Palate
Oily, herbal lemon drives a luxurious palate, carrying vanilla bonbons, fresh straw and sugared almond, with mandarin orange and a lively ginger spice weaving through.
Finish
Fizzy citrus lingers with fresh cereal, carried on floral and herb oils, finishing with a whisper of smoke on singed barley.
