Genialer Whisky, der beste Cardhu ever, dagegen muss auch der DT verlieren auch wenn der ebenfalls genial ist, dieser ist einfach komplexer als der DT

Color

Tawny

Nose

Starts oily (plain vegetable oil). After a while it evolves to vanilla, hay, gooseberries and yellow apples. Lovely furniture polish. It's not overly sweet, it's warm but there are earthy and mineral qualities to it as well. I even detected tiny hints of medicinal notes. Quite special.

Taste

Mouth-coating and rather unique. Again very oily (lemon balm) but also quite spicy / herbal (aniseed, mint, ginger, pepper) and fruity (grapefruit, oranges, blackberries). Some chocolate notes and toffee. Great complexity, anything but boring.

Finish

Slightly drier and grassier. Still some citrus and cocoa. Quite long.

Comments

This Cardhu has more to offer than just an "easy" fruitiness like some other old Speysiders - it has plenty character and it's still really balanced.
