Cardhu Pure Highland Malt Whisky (1980's Bottling) (75cl) 12 Year Old

Colour

Golden amber with a sunlit, honey-warm glow.

Nose

Delicate, honeyed nose of orchard fruit—pear and apple—laced with vanilla and soft toffee. Subtle almond, gentle malt sweetness, and a whisper of oak spice from the sherry cask, bringing a refined, sun-kissed aroma that lingers with quiet elegance.

Palate

Silky and elegant, the palate reveals Cardhu's honeyed sweetness, with orchard fruit: apple and pear, and creamy malt. Sherry depth adds dried fruit, almond and a whisper of fig, while vanilla and gentle spice carry to a soft, warm finish with hints of cocoa and oak.

Finish

Silky finish, honeyed and light, with orchard fruit and vanilla lingering gracefully. Subtle spice and toasted oak rise, then a gentle wave of dried fruit and sherry sweetness fades to a warm, creamy echo.
