Cardhu 12 Year

A good 12 single malt. For the price range, it's a nice little gem.

Good tasting sweet but not rich really like tea enjoyed it

Good value, fruity

Game 5 in full swing and needing the win. Looking for a light and sweet after dinner dram and pulled this from the cabinet. Floral and honey notes along with some ripe pears come across light and sweet on the nose. The honey notes become more dominant as it opens. Very light texture on the palate. The honey and fruity sweetness quickly arrives and fades transitioning to a malty barley and into the finish. Some oaky dryness remains. Balanced well, more sweet than dry, but not overly sweet. Easy to drink and enjoyable and uncomplicated. Good starter scotch. Not a bad one to have in a collection and priced rather reasonably. A beach house scotch? Maybe. (Christmas gift). [86/100].
