Description

An elegant Cardhu that takes time to reveal its delicate, fruity and rich character, repaying a little thoughtful contemplation.

Nose: Slow to give of its secrets, with mere hints of a fruity richness and spicy complexity to come. A swirl of the glass releases enticing, clean vanilla notes and tropical fruit. Soon, the fruits are dried (light fruit cake with flaked almonds). Adding water brings out typical Speyside character, and makes the nose slightly more acidic. Late on, at last, greater depth and complexity: sweet, spicy and rich, finishing with dense toffee and toasted coconut.

Taste: An elegant Cardhu that takes time to reveal its delicate, fruity and rich character, repaying careful contemplation.

in a sentence… Delicate tropical fruits and light fruit cake please, while drier notes of oak and charred flavours are offset by malty sweetness, spiciness and a suggestion of smoke, in what is revealed to be a richer character than you first imagine.

Palate: Slow to venture forth and quite viscous straight. Cooling, then peppery and lightly charred. Growing richer, still sweet, but now with toffee and chocolate; burnt sugar on a Crème Brûlée. With water, less viscous and sweeter with almost no acidity; very pleasant and easy to drink.

Finish: Smooth, light and slightly drying, with attractive bitter chocolate notes. Not over long, with a hint of faint smoke at the end.
