Cardhu Amber Rock Single Malt Double Matured 700ml - Spirits-Malt Whisky : Waipu Liquor Centre

Double matured in American Oak casks, Cardhu Amber Rock is a wonderful whisky with a full body with notes of oak, vanilla and citrus fruits for a wonderful balance of flavour. With a luxurious bitter orange finish, the sweetness is complimented beautifully.

TASTING NOTE

APPEARANCE - Vivid, clear amber.

NOSE - Sweet, full and vibrant, with fresh pear and lychee notes dancing above buttery pastry. Through this rise balancing citrus notes of sweet tangerine, lemon balm or a lively old-fashioned lemonade. These soften in turn into a rich syrupy- smooth maltiness with sweet toffee, honey and barley sugar. There are notes of fragrant vanilla and toasted marshmallow here too, as the palate rounds further to apples and pears in syrup, spiced with clove, then to deeper creamy white chocolate and almonds.

BODY - Medium. Coating. Almost fizzes with life.

PALATE - Sweet and spicy from the start, like a fresh fruit salad with pears and sweet apples in lemon juice finished with a splash...
