€180.00

An extra-tropical edition of Cardhu, released as part of the Diageo Special Releases 2022. Matured in refill and recharred casks before a finish in Jamaican pot-still-rum casks, it adds layers of tropical fruit to Cardhu's honey-forward character to create a zingy but rich whisky.

NOSE Spiced cream, toffee and fruit: mango puree and roasted pineapple. The toffee notes build, joined by creamy milk chocolate and soft spice. Cinder toffee hints hide at the back with pineapple upside-down cake and spiced pears.

PALATE Buttery toffee is swamped by fruit – pineapple leads with creamy apple sauce, sharp Granny Smith apples and poached pears. The fruit continues to build, followed by spiced fruitcake, sultanas and fudgey touches.

FINISH A tingle of spiced is followed by green apples, soft spice and shortbread hints.
