Mina kommentarer:
En god och smakrik whisky som jag tror kommer att hävda sig bra på min Flora & Fauna provning. Min poäng: 84 p

Tasting notes från Malt Maniacs: Officiella tasting notes:

I finished the F&F tasting with the Dailuaine 16yo (43%, Flora & Fauna). This bottle (with a badger on the label) was opened during Klaus' visit in January, so it's had plenty of time to break in. It was my first bottle from this Speyside distillery.
Nose: Sherry. A hint of smoke. Grassy after a while. Not unlike the Benrinnes, but toned down a notch. Flattens out after a few minutes.
Taste: Sherry sweetness. Woody. A bit malty. Fruitier over time. Smoke. A big burn. Great development! Oak and sherry in the finish, but caramel sweetness as well.
Conclusion: 80 points. This is one of the few malts that tastes better than it smells. The nose is OK but the palate is very good. A lot of complexity and development. With a bigger nose, it would probably have matched the 83 points of Benrinnes. Inga
