If there is such a thing, this is a session whisky. One of the easiest drinking whiskies I know. First sip is oak, biscuity and mid-sweet (toffee apple sweet rather than sugar). There are some ginger and cinnamon spices on the short finish. From this expression you can tell that Cardhu is a major ingredient to Johnnie Walker blends, but this NAS does have its own character. It’s not a whisky that you’d likely be raving about, but it’s a nice, unassuming and easy to drink dram.
