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.
I tried this whiskey for the first time tonight, I have found it a really smooth delicate single malt, with strong notes of toffee, I pair £30 for this whiskey as it is on offer in Morrisons, it is usually 42 which I still think is a reasonable price for a nice easy drinking single malt.
Lovely sweet, toffee whisky. At £25 in Morrison's at the minute is a steal. Nothing spectacular just a good all round, easy drinking everyday malt.
Truly lovely tasting whisky. The toffee flavour really shines through.
This is my favorite go to Whisky whenever it is less than £25.01
This is an excellent whiskey. No peat whatsoever, just a fruity mouthful followed by a lovely dry tingling finish.
