Суммаризация отзывов
Отзывы описывают Strathmill 12 Flora & Fauna как лёгкий, солодово-сладкий виски с фруктовыми и ванильными нотами, часто простой и не слишком сложный, но приятный для повседневного употребления. Мнения о балансе и финише расходятся: часть отмечает мягкость и округлость, часть — горечь, разбавленность и короткий финиш.
развернуть подробно
В большинстве текстовых отзывов нос описывается как лёгкий, довольно закрытый, с фруктово-сладкими нотами, ванилью, яблоками и грушами, мёдом, солодом, иногда сухофруктами, орехами, специями и лёгкими землистыми или травянистыми оттенками. Вкус чаще характеризуют как мягкий, округлый, солодово-сладкий, с ванилью, специями, дубом, фруктами и медовыми тонами; неоднократно подчёркивается простота и лёгкость напитка. Финиш в отзывах варьируется от среднего до средне-длинного, часто описывается как сухой, пряный, дубовый, иногда с горечью, перцем или цитрусовыми нотами.
Среди критических замечаний встречаются указания на разбавленность, доминирование алкоголя, металлический или кислый оттенок, горечь и короткий финиш; некоторые отмечают, что нос интереснее вкуса. В то же время часть отзывов называет виски приятным, сбалансированным и лёгким для повседневного драмма, хотя и не вызывающим особого восторга. Несколько отзывов упоминают различия между партиями розлива.

Pretty good stuff. It shows Strathmill´s competence of delivering some fresh, crisp fruity spirit that makes it wanted in blends. But on it´s own, it´s worth a try too.

Bottled in November 2022 (L2314DQ000). The batches seem to be very different, which is of course no surprise. I have had a much more pleasant Strathmill F&F bottling in my glass before, which was less bitter and I liked it better.

| Нос | 83 | Quite closed at first. First impression is quite malty and with light fruit notes. Vanilla, apples and pears, malt and grain, a hint of red gummy bears, orange, honey, sliced almonds, fine oak. |
| Вкус | 84 | Spicy and quite full in the mouth. The drinking strength is clear. Vanilla, oak spice, mineral notes, apples and pears again, dried orange slices, allspice, coriander, cloves. |
| Финиш | 83 | Medium-long finish, slightly tart. Dried orange and grapefruit, brine water, apple, allspice, coriander, oak. A few minutes after the last sip, a little peach comes to the rescue. |

Very pleasant to drink for me, even if it comes across as a bit edgy at times. I like this originality with little to no balance. So it stays exciting. That would be the case if you imagine this dram to have matured ten years longer. Maybe I'll be lucky enough to be able to enjoy something like that.

As the Flora and Fauna range go this is a nice one, as I say it took me a while to get into it as some do but it pulled It self round and became one of those quite pleasant every day drams we all know.

Not a dram to get excited over, but drinkable.
Quite light on the nose, fruity peaches, vanilla and malt. On palate creamy, soft , malty, vanilla with honey suckle , peaches . Mid palate biscuits and honey with lingering oak and malt. Actually there’s nothing wrong, quite inoffensive yet very simple. It makes an easy balanced between malty honey sipper that you can enjoy without thinking about it.
This was a slow starter but it picked up pace as I went down the bottle. This was a birthday gift off my wife Clare.

Slightly thin and oaky, but easy to drink.
In general, it is a whisky that is light both in the palate and in the finish, and is relatively off on the nose. The alcohol content and aromas are insufficient and it has a simple drinking experience.

Pleasant nose, the rest drops significantly.
Strathmill 12 (Flora and Fauna 43%). Consumed Dec 2018 at The Britannia. Aroma is simple, oaky, vanilla, apple pie. Taste is rounded, lots of vanilla and spice, more peat impressions than I had expected, vanilla and oak, lovely apple pie and lingering spiciness (seems lightly peated to me) - yum, this is solid. Tasty. 3.4/81
Light golden color. Light oiliness.

Nice round feeling but it doesn't stick around for long
https://whiskylovingpianist.wordpress.com/2020/05/25/on-location-dalwhinnie/ N: Murky wash with a fudge maltiness. I like this porridgy style. T: A little peppery,…. and then some! It’s better behaved with water but still feels somewhat wayward. Despite this, it also stays porridgy and becomes a tad chocolatey. F: Returns dry then with more Caramac=carob notes. With water, I get a little heathery bitter-forest note with a woody mouldiness at the tail. C: Not many Strathmill’s around, official bottling or otherwise so these F&F bottlings appear more desirable year on year. Currently £44 [2016]
A pleasantly fresh and soft whisky with alternating acidity and sweetness of citrus fruits. The nose is confirmed in taste - 06.12.2017

Tasted twice on two different days, and both times a metallic off-note was present on the palate. The whisky otherwise had potential, but unfortunately, this is a deal-breaker for me.
Fresh corn and a little salty fresh notes in the nose. Little character, malty sweet and slightly bitter and much wood. Short finish.
A very well balanced dram that needs some time to open up. It’s soft spoken and on the sweet side. although the finish has a peppery kick to it. All in all a nice enough whisky that will not offend anyone. http://www.worldwhisky.nl/review-379-strathmill-12-year/

| Нос | 84 | Fresh, aromatic, fruity and honey, apples and pears, vanilla, slightly nutty, a bit of milk chocolate, notes of oak and hay, in the background notes of dried fruit and herbs |
| Вкус | 82 | Fruity and honey, apples and pears, malty, vanilla, a bit of caramel, a bit of nut nougat, notes of dried herbs, dried orange peel, slight bitterness of oak |
| Финиш | 80 | Medium length, fresh, slightly malty, honey-nutty, light notes of dried herbs. |
For my very first review, I decided to take my time and spent 30 full minutes just nosing before taking the first sip. That was an absolute highlight. The nosing was incredibly rich, evolving, and enjoyable from start to finish! While the palate and finish couldn't quite keep up with that impressive start, taking the time to let it breathe made this first tasting experience a great success.

| Нос | 88 | Grape juice, apple, and distinct vanilla. After 10-20 minutes, darker notes like plum and fig emerge. Warmed by hand, the profile changes fascinatingly from fresh grape to young wine (Federweißer). Very enjoyable and multifaceted nose! |
| Вкус | 76 | Unfortunately, a bit disappointing on the palate. Initially fleeting sweetness and dark chocolate. Without adding water, an off putting sour note quickly appears. The alcohol is dominant, and the flavors feel pale and fleeting compared to the nose. |
| Финиш | 73 | Slightly rancid/oily and dry, with the sourness remaining noticeable. |
Molt is simple, but very pleasant, drinkable, quite rich and dense for its years - a soft oak speaker, something in the spirit of Stratale.

Nose: Light sweet. Citrus, Lemon, and a bit of a chalky side. Hint of mint. There is a grassy note. Overall it smell remarkable young. Not very active casks they had for this. Taste: A little weak. slightly dry. a bit sour a bit sweet, hint of grass and again the chalky side. But there is not much going on here. Body: Thin but smooth Finish: Medium. A tad dry, a bit bitter. Some bitteroranges. Hint of citrus marmalade. And there are tannines. Price: Don't pay more than €50,- everything more is pure speculation. Presentation: Decent as all F&F bottles Comments: Rather a weak whisky in a recommended series. I think there are quite old and exhausted casks been used here.

From the beginning, fruity and delicate, later drying out, adding spiciness and, unfortunately, bitterness. A hopeful beginning, a hopeless end ..
