Cardhu has a generous spirit which flows from two pioneering women, Helen and Elizabeth Cumming who co-founded and built up the distillery. When Elizabeth retired she entrusted her cherished Cardhu to John Walker & Sons. This, their first distillery has become the spiritual home of Johnnie Walker while its own generous spirit echoes the character of 'The Cummings of Cardhu.'
Cardhu is a soft, smooth Speyside single malt acclaimed for its elegant style and silky texture. Finest malted barley, pure spring water from the Mannoch Hills, slow traditional distilling and skilled maturation in oak all play their part in its creation. To fully savour each generous, honeyed layer of rich and fruity flavour, enjoy from a balloon glass.
Nose: Good body, decent sweetness, richness. Streaks of smoke, apple peels, bruised pears.
Palate: Smooth, rounded, gentle sweetness, soft peat. A little smoke whispers sweet nothings.
Finish: Long, dry smoke, malty touch of peat.
