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.
Honeyed tinned stone fruits, toffees and a hint of strawberry with red apple and ginger coming through with a little water.
Fairly dry with biscuity oak and a little cinnamon as well as some development of those toffee and apple notes.
Gentle oak and (milk chocolate) caramel digestives.
Described as a "generous" whisky, it's a description that matches both the nose and its general easy-drinking nature.
A perfectly drinkable and enjoyable dram... but lacks a unique or outstanding character so fine if you can pick it up on a special offer but I'd be reluctant to pay full price over others that are more memorable
Smooth and easy to drink. Toffee and a hint of apple on the nose. Caramel and a bit of cream on the taste with a different but nice floral after taste. Not very complex and no smack to the taste buds, but overall a nice easy whisky to drink and at £25.00 at Tesco it’s a steal.
Lovely, just like it says on the bottle, apples and toffee on the nose, intensivies on palate with a smokey finish.
Easy to drink....and a bargain too !
On offer at Asda at the moment for £25.00 !! An absolute gift!!
