Cardhu comes from one of the oldest of the Speyside distilleries, which have
nestled in foothills near the River Spey for 200 years. Members of the Cardhu
whisky family are lively in character and surprise with every sip. Distinct
honey on the nose with some clean, firm grain followed by rich malt. Exotic
fruit follows with mango and kiwi. Some grassiness and light note of peat way in
the background. Big entry into the mouth with immediate wave of ripe malt which
brings out some spicy notes and hints of vanilla. All the while there seems to
be a little rumble of peat way back in the rear. Soft, satisfying finish. Our
Master Blender has carefully selected casks to create a mouth-wateringly sweet
malt whisky with a quietly spicy finish. Gold Reserve is fruitier and warmer
than the classic 12 year old, its initial sweetness is cut by crisp orange zest
followed by a subtle mineral dryness. Cardhu Gold Reserve is a great choice as a
sweeter aperitif. Beautifully presented in gold luxurious packaging, Cardhu Gold
Reserve makes the perfect gift for any whisky lover.
