Words Of Whisky:
Refill and re-charred American Oak and Jamaican pot still rum seasoned
Nose: Some surprising mineral notes and touches of varnish, followed by pear skin, brown sugar, pineapple, and hints of hints of forest floor. Finally some plums, honey and biscuits.
Taste: Thumbs up for the creamy mouthfeel. The palate displays a vibrant fruitiness. Hints of grapefruit, mango and tangerines. Hints of almonds and something vegetal, as well as orange liqueur and dark caramel. Really very pleasant.
Finish: Hints of honey, mango and a touch of chalk. Gentle, warming spices. Medium in length.
CONCLUSION
I’m really happy with how the Cardhu 16 Years turned out. The Jamaican pot still casks certainly seemed to have added a tropical fruitiness that’s always very welcome. But it’s also not overtly rummy, if you know what I mean.
