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

Lowlands, SCOTLAND
$999. 00
Bottle
$11988.00 Dozen
ABV: 43%

The Rosebank distillery is settled on the banks of the Forth-Clyde canal near Falkirk and has been mothballed since 1993.  Considered as the Queen of all Lowland malts by some specialists, Rosebank is still available as a cask strength release in the 'Rare Malts' collection and independent bottlers have put several versions on the market. We are fortunate to have obtained very limited stocks of this rare gem under the 'Flora & Fauna' label.
This is a must for any serious whisky enthusiast or collector - it may be the last time Rosebank is available in Australia, at least at any half reasonable price.

'...remains a cracking dram. Shame the distillery is being bulldozed. No, make that a disgrace'. - Dave Broom, www.whiskymag.com

Other reviews... Nose: strands of honey and honeycomb entwine around a softly herbal, but enormously weighted maltiness... Taste: this has to be near perfection in regard to texture and not far off with the way the honey polished malt trips around the palate with an almost apologetic spiciness for accompaniment. Finish: long, more honeycomb with hints of liquorice and soft herbs...this is quite legendary stuff. 43% Alc./Vol.
