Cardhu 18YO
Description
Region: Speyside, Scotland
Flavour: Nose: Natural, rich and complex. Soft fruits of pears, plums, cherries. Hints of pineapple develop a light, green, gooseberry-like edge. Delicate scents of wild rose, menthol and polished leather rise above a soft base of Christmas cake or buttery pastry.
Palate: A smooth and sweet taste. The soft, delicate, fruity core is cradled by rich, chocolate-edged flavours, the texture, chocolate and fruit combining to evoke a cherry liqueur chocolate truffle.
Finish:Exciting and complex, the conclusion is long, smooth, gently drying and rich in cocoa.
