Description

Cardhu 16 Year Old Special Release 2022 is a single malt whisky finished in Jamaican pot still rum casks. Inspired by a legend, it depicts the moment the black rock beneath Cardhu split open, unleashing tropical warmth, aromas of passionfruit, pineapple and hot sun, before closing at midnight. The Scotch distilled that day stands as the only record of this unusual event.

Producer’s Tasting Notes

Nose: Beguiling first impressions begin with the fresh, sweet fruitiness of lemon zest and white grape enriched by exotic notes of pink grapefruit and ripe mango, all on a faintly mossy base, a note that evolves into freshly ironed linen. A notably spicy and woody note soars high above. A drop of water dries these aromas and introduces a pinch of white pepper.
Palate: A creamy-smooth and full texture, the taste erupting with sweet flavour. Tingling on the tongue, the fruity and malty sweetness behind this suggesting home-made rum toffee and more exotic hints of spiced pineapple and green banana, made more appetising still by spicy and drying, bracingly crisp, clean oak. A dash of water creates a delightful and even smoother texture, still strong in peppery spice.
Finish: Quite short, sweet and peppery. With water, the oaky spiciness is even more forward.
