This Benrinnes belongs to the Flora & Fauna series. Under this series, the owner Diageo fills selected casks from a few distilleries, each individually as a Single Malt. The Flora & Fauna series is a true enrichment of the whisky scene and is regarded by collectors as an original bottling if there are no other original bottlings.

For the 200th anniversary of the distillery, the 8-year-old Lagavulin was bottled for the first time. After the great response, Diageo decided to bottle the whisky regularly at the end of 2017.

The Game of Thrones Single Malt Collection was bottled in honour of the eighth and final season of the series Game of Thrones (GoT). With different alcohol strengths, each of the rare Scotch whiskies is dedicated to one of the houses of Westeros, the setting of the series and the Night's Watch that protects it. The 9-year-old Lagavulin is an imposing Single Malt Whisky that evokes memories of the wealth and tenacity of House Lannister.

This bottling comes from the traditional and modern Glengoyne Distillery, which is located in the southern Highlands of Scotland. The distillery relies on a comparatively slow fermentation of around 60 hours and is also committed to the environment. The name is derived from the Gaelic 'Glen Guin', which translates as 'valley of the wild geese'. The 15-year-old Single Malt matured in first-fill Bourbon and sherry casks, which gives it facets of dark orchard fruits and spicy vanilla notes.

Cardhu means something like black rock in Gaelic. The distillery's bottlings are produced in a relatively long distillation process.

Glenfiddich Fire & Cane belongs to the Experimental Series, for which Malt Master Brian Kinsman breaks new ground with the Glenfiddich Malt. The 4th bottling is a peated bottling that was first matured in American bourbon casks. The Single Malt was then matured in Latin American rum casks.

Finlaggan Cask Strength is a smoky Single Malt at cask strength from a single distillery. Exactly which one is a well-kept secret.

Bunnahabhain Stiùireadair (pronounced: stew-rahdur) is a tribute to the sea. Only first and second fill sherry casks that matured on the seaward side of the warehouse were selected for the bottling. The ageless Stiùireadair has complemented the distillery's range since 2017.

Glenfiddich Our Original Twelve is the world's best-selling single malt whisky and an important cornerstone of the distillery's range. It is matured in selected Oloroso sherry and bourbon casks and impresses with its soft and slightly fruity character. In 2019, Glenfiddich relaunched its core range with a new bottle design. The title 'Our Original Twelve' emphasises the long tradition of the Speyside distillery. This message has also been transferred to the bottle design: the V engraving on the bottle symbolises the 'Valley of the Deer' (Glenfiddich in Gaelic), the distillery's place of origin. The bottles are also triangular (triangular) in shape because Single Malt is made from three core ingredients (water, yeast and grain) and because the bottles feel like you are shaking hands with a good friend.

Tamnavulin Double Cask was first matured in former bourbon casks before it received its post-maturation in former sherry casks. Tamnavulin was built in 1966 in the rural village of Tomnavoulin, Scotland. Almost three decades later, it was closed again. After an extensive renovation, the reopening was celebrated in 2007. This bottling was released to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the distillery.

Bunnahabhain Eirigh na Greine, the Morning Sky, is bottled in limited numbers each year. The malt is matured in Italian and French wine casks and is exclusive to Travel Retail.

Old Ballantruan is produced at the Tomintoul Distillery in Speyside. It owes its name to the Ballantruan spring of the same name in the Cromdale Hills, near the village of Tomintoul. Untypical for this region, heavily peated malt with 55ppm smoke content is used to produce this Single Malt.
