Mannochmore Flora & Fauna 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Another rare offering in the Flora and Fauna collection. Along with Auchroisk, this remains one of Diageo’s well-kept secrets. Mannochmore was founded in 1971, and while details are difficult to find it would seem that the malt is destined for one of Diageo's blends. Another possibility is that the whispers of Mannochmore have been drowned out by it's more prominent neighbours Longmorn and Benriach.

The whisky seems to have found fans on the tasting panel at Whisky Magazine with both Martine Nouet and Dave Broom reviewing the whisky favourably, whilst Jim Murray didn't see the appeal.

Other reviews... Quite a greasy dram with sweet malt and bitter oak.
