Cardhu 12 years old is one for the sweet-toothed among you. Why? Clean, crisp oak and sweet malt evoking flavours of honeyed flapjacks and home-made caramel squares. Lots of charm from this easy-going Speysider. Cardhu is very loved in Spain. Is it because it is sweet and goes perfectly with ice and the warm Spanish climate? Have a taste, let me know!
NOSE
At full strength, heady, nose prickle, pear drops and tightly integrated heather, resin and sweet honey-nut notes. Enticing. Intriguing. With a little water, still harmonious but less pronounced, allowing some malt-cereal, soft, spicy wood, moorland and faint traces of wood-smoke to appear.
PALATE
Palate Well balanced, smooth mouthfeel; short punch, sweet and fresh, then a pronounced drying effect. Enjoyable at any time, with little or no water. (However, keep in mind… the ice!)
FINISH
Quite short. Some lingering sweet smoke in the attractive, drying aftertaste.
