Country: Scotland

Region: Speyside

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 58%

Score: 94 Points

This year’s Cardhu entry in the Special Releases series from Diageo is finished in Jamaican Rum-seasoned casks, and the nose is full of tropical fruits, dried flowers, and a hint of jasmine. The taste is rich and lush with touches of pineapple, banana, baking spices, honey, vanilla, and a hint of oak that comes out as the spices fade. The finish is long and fruity with hints of oak and lingering spices. Excellent!
