Following on from the successful introduction of the Classic Malts of Scotland range in 1988 (at the time only six expressions), United Distillers sought to build on this by releasing a further twenty-two single malts in 1991. These became affectionately known as the Flora & Fauna series, a term coined by whisky writer Michael Jackson in reference to their labels. The range showcased the lesser-seen distilleries from the extensive United Distillers portfolio at the time. Despite four further additions by Diageo in 2001, only a eleven of these are still permanent distillery bottlings, making this a highly collectible series.
