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.
As below, my partner brought some home from Morrisons tonight,same price £25-can't wait to crack it open!
Stunning whisky. Currently £25 at Morrisons, down from £42. Absolute steal!
My now favourite grandson treated me to this delightful whisky which I am enjoying in 2017.
Lovely and smooth, easy to drink. A new favorite of Myself the Wife and the Father in law. Although my Dad hates it, loves his Talisker and Penderyn. Will keep going back to this one time and time again.
Superb. A bargain at £35 a steal at £25. Every little helps. Until 2.1.2017. Fill your boots!
