Cardhu Special Cask Reserve 70cl Whisky
Cardhu Special Cask Reserve
The Cardhu Special Cask Reserve features whisky taken from "very old oak casks", presented in their classic, handsome bottle. Top Speyside whisky from a long-standing distillery. Bottled in batches (which may not match the one in the image - for more info get in touch).
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Dried apricots and pineapple. Thick waves of caramel and honey'd barley. The "old oak" makes a spicy appearance later on.
Palate
Plenty of cereal and barley at its centre, surrounded by home-made fudge, raisins, citrus zest and a good chunk of dark chocolate. Cinnamon and ginger pop up in the mid-palate.
Finish
Long and intense with spice.
Overall
A pleasing step-up from the Cardhu 12 Year Old.
