Cardhu : 17 results priced between £25.00 and £350.00

Cardhu whisky Distillery must be one of the best located distilleries in Speyside. High on the hills on the north side of the Spey Valley with extensive views to the south, it is set in attractive grounds ideal for picnics (complete with picnic tables). The malt itself - which is presented in an elegant decanter with a beechwood stopper - is pretty typical of a Speyside malt. It is highly approachable - smooth, sweet, mellow and uncomplicated. It has good body and length. By law we cannot sell this...

A 1970s bottling of Cardhu that we're not sure of the age of - its neck label has come off sometime over the years robbing us of that knowledge...

Cardhu - Not forward, yet attractively ‘natural’ and in time rich, balanced and very complex. Macerated fruits; pears, plums, cherries. Hints of pineapple develop a light, green, gooseberry-like edge. Delicate scents of wild rose, menthol and polished leather rise above a soft base of Christmas cake or buttery pastry. Water opens it all up elegantly, without altering the main themes.

John Cumming converted the familial farm called Cardow into a distillery round 1810. He used the barley produced by the farm and he produced his own peat. The proximity of the river Spey ant the surrounding hills were assets for a distillery. He began as a moonshine distiller. The hills were a place of safety in case the excise men would 'visit' him. The controls were frequent, and John's wife, Helen Cumming helped her husband with a successfull stratageme. She used to receive them very...

On the nose Cardhu is clean and sweet with delicious hints of apple. On the palate it is rich with just a hint of oak which adds a pleasant and unexpected dryness. On the finish there are delicious tastes of vanilla and malt.

70cl / 51.10% - A 1984 single cask Cardhu, bottled at natural cask strength by Duncan Taylor for their wonderful Octave cask range of whiskies finished in smaller ""Octave"" casks. This gives the maturing spirit additional contact with the oak, and the result is incredible complexity.

Managers' Choice single cask selection gives you the chance to enjoy some of the most individual single malt whiskies ever bottled. One of only 252 bottles drawn from a bourbon American Oak Cask. Tasting notes: Vanilla and tangerine aroma with an immediacy of flavour. Bottled at 57.3% volume.

Nose: At full strength, heady, nose prickle, pear drops and tightly integrated heather, resin and sweet honey-nut notes. Enticing. Intriguing. With a little water, still harmonious but less pronounced, allowing some malt-cereal, soft, spicy wood, moorland and faint traces of wood-smoke to appear.

Situated high above the river Spey between Knockando and Craigellachie, in Morayshire. Cardhu takes its name from the rocks of the Mannoch Hills where it also takes its water. The original owner, John Cumming, was a notorious whisky smuggler who had a string of convictions for elicit distilling. His wife, Helen, was as spirited as her husband and was a master of disguising the distillation process when the excise men came-a-visiting. Cardhu was also for a time the smallest distillery in Scotland.

There are many great whiskies in the Manager's Drams series but this Cardhu is up there with the best of them, oily, fat, richly malty, biscuity and heavily accented by green and citrus fruits with background peat. A wonderful and often overlooked bottling.

I confirm Joe Strieter's comment. You can find Cardhu in EVERY bar and supermarket in Spain. Cardhu was my first "quality" Scotch, and is what got me interested in whisk(e)ys. I highly recommend this one for beginners. Easy to drink with enough noticeable flavours, but not as complex as a seasoned whiskey drinker might look for. As I don't want to waste expensive whiskey on non whiskey drinkers, I'll be picking up a bottle of this for tonight's New Years party.

These old Cardhus were generally very waxy, mineraly and herbaceous with all kinds of old style cub complexities to boot. However, I've never tried one that was bottled as far back as this so who knows what to expect. I bet it's stunning though.

We visited the Distillery in our Motorhome over Easter. We had to knock to get in as they were not expecting visitors in such blizzards! We are glad we went! This is an exceptional bottle of Whisky and I cannot recommend it highly enough!

3cl / 40.00% - A well-balanced, gentle single malt from Speyside. Cardhu 12 is a very well put together malt.

75cl / 43% / Distillery Bottling - A distillery bottling of 12 year old Cardhu from the 1970s, dressed in their old style white livery.
