A well-balanced, gentle single malt from Speyside. Cardhu 12 is a very well put together malt.
Good body, decent sweetness, richness. Streaks of smoke, apple peels, bruised pears.
Smooth, rounded, gentle sweetness, soft peat. A little smoke whispers sweet nothings.
Long, dry smoke, malty touch of peat.
I like the nose. Smooth, floral and fresh. The taste is totally different. Almost not the same whisky. Very aggressive and acid. I do not like it at all
The tasting notes are right on. I tried it once in a restaurant and absolutely love it, I went to buy a bottle right after. Good smoky notes and the after taste is superb. Very gentle. I wonder how the 15yo tastes like. Look forward to try that one.
wasn't to impressed with the nose, but it has a pleasant honey/toffee taste. i'm not a fan of peaty malts but the slight hint in this one didn't put me off. not great but not bad either.

Purchased on a whim, this became the "go to" celebration single malt. Clean, damn near refreshing, and subtly sweet. This is special occasion stuff.
