    Single Malt

    Cardhu Gold Reserve

    Cardhu Gold Reserve is a whisky that's as smooth and golden as its namesake. Cardhu Gold Reserve is a blend of Speyside and Highland single malt whiskies, each aged for at least 12 years. The result is a complex yet well-balanced whisky with notes of honey, vanilla, and citrus. Cardhu Gold Reserve is the perfect choice for those looking for a sophisticated yet approachable whisky.

    Cardhu is the latest Diageo distillery to have a little core range shake up with the launch of a no age statement single malt (or two). Created using hand-picked toasted oak casks, Cardhu Gold Reserve offers something different to the classic 12 year old with a fruitier nose and a dry, warming palate.

    Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

    Nose

    Honeyed tinned stone fruits, toffees and a hint of strawberry with red apple and ginger coming through with a little water.

    Palate

    Fairly dry with biscuity oak and a little cinnamon as well as some development of those toffee and apple notes.

    Finish

    Gentle oak and (milk chocolate) caramel digestives.

    Overall

    Described as a "generous" whisky, it's a description that matches both the nose and its general easy-drinking nature.

    A whisky not to be missed

    Even at the full price it's a most wonderful whisky - it outclasses other more expensive single malt Why on earth do they feel the need for a discount, mind you I am not complaining at the lower price it's always buy one and get the second one free -no damage to the depth of the pocket Every time I drink it I feel it's a special occasion not to missed

    Drab, generic and overpriced.

    It may be my palate but no way is this a forty pound bottle of malt. It's bland, uninspiring and I thought slightly rough around the edges. There's a tiny hint of smoke at the end of the finish but otherwise I'd take Aldi's Speyside over this any day of the week.

    Try if you like a bourbon

    To sweet for me.but each to there own.sweetness eased slightly with a dash of room temperature water.bought at Morrisons because it was reduced £42 to £26.glad I didn’t pay full price.no real bite or aftertaste,I felt I was waiting for something that does not arrive.

    Great little find

    Just picked this up from Morrisons for £25 an wow what a bargain. I think I have tried most of what Morrisons / Tesco's sell (tho I am an Aldi Highland / Speyside drinker as that bloody good for the price when your drinking a bottle a week). This stuff tho is like drinking warm, soft butter. Sweet, no peat and totally scrumptious. So much so I am going to buy another tomorrow on the way to work to have as back up for a long bank holiday weekend.

    Decent whisky but nowhere near 4.5 stars.

    Decent whisky but nowhere near 4.5 stars reviews suggest. Pleasant oil feel but a bit too much citrus peel bitterness. Slight petrol smell with some vague hint of caramel.
