This was gifted to me by a friend for my birthday a few months ago (shoutout to @steven.const!) This was my first time really trying Cardhu (outside of having tried it through Johnnie Walker ofc). The wooden top is such a nice touch to this unique bottle shape! Cardhu Gold Reserve, 40% abv: Nose: red apples, melted butter and honey on toast, apricots, some hints of freshly cut wood. After 💧: subtle baking spices Palate: sweet orchid fruits, white pepper and toasted oak. After 💧: any heat vanishes but so does any oily richness Finish: slightly dry, short. The subtle pepperiness leaves you with a tingly tongue #cardhu #cardugold #cardhuwhisky #cardhugoldreserve #wateroflife #whisky #singlemalt #maltlover #whiskytasting #whiskylife #whiskylover #whiskies #whiskey #womeninwhiskey #whiskygram #whiskywomen #whiskygirl #whiskyporn #whiskylife #whiskylove #malt #whiskycollector #whiskyoftheday #scotch #dram #威士忌酒 #johnnıewalker (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNIdflMs6qA/?igshid=c3btloqybnr4
