Cardhu 15 Year Old
Cardhu 15 Year Old is a 15-year-old Speyside single malt Scotch whisky from Cardhu, bottled at 40% ABV in a 700ml format.

Cardhu comes from Speyside, near the River Spey, and the official product page identifies this expression as a 15-year-old single malt Scotch whisky. The brand highlights Cardhu’s long distillery history and smooth, sweet-natured style, but the official page does not specify the cask types used for this exact 15-year-old release.
In the glass, this whisky shows a deep old-gold colour. The nose builds slowly from clean vanilla and tropical fruit into dried fruit, light fruit cake, flaked almonds, toffee and toasted coconut. The palate is light yet medium-bodied and viscous, with cooling pepper, light char, toffee, chocolate and burnt sugar before a smooth, slightly drying finish with bitter chocolate and faint smoke.
Cardhu 15 Year Old suits drinkers looking for a mellow Speyside single malt with fruit, sweetness and gentle spice rather than heavy peat. Serve it neat for a relaxed after-dinner dram, or add a little water if you prefer a softer, sweeter presentation of its fruit and toffee notes.
