Signatory Cardhu 1975

Country: Scotland

Region: Speyside

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Signatory

ABV: 56.1%

Score: 88 Points

This 27-year-old Speyside single malt from Cardhu was distilled in June of 1975 and bottled by Signatory in January of 2003 from a single ex-Sherry cask. The nose is smooth and creamy with mild spices, but the taste is thick and spicy with great notes of cinnamon, black pepper, cardamom, honey, and a nice oakiness. The finish is long, spicy, and slightly dry. Thanks to Peter Silver of the Malt Maniacs for providing a sample from his collection! (October, 2014)
