18 Year Old image
Cardhu 18 Year Old
An often forgotten achievement of the Cardhu distillery was that at the hands of Elizabeth Cumming, who rebuilt the distillery in 1884 after the death of John Cumming in 1846. With Cardhu being sold in London by 1888, the distillery proudly proclaimed to be the only distillery of the Speyside region not affixing Glen to its name. In 1893, Elizabeth sold to John Walker & Sons, with the added condition that her son John would join the board, this move meaning that Cardhu created malt whisky that would one day become a substantial part of the Johnnie Walker Blends. Note: This is not currently available in the U.S.

Part of the  Diageo family of brands.
Tasting Notes
Nose: 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.
Palate: A smooth and sweet taste, unctuous, yet with light and lively acidity. The soft, delicate, fruity core is cradled by rich, chocolate-edged flavours, the texture, chocolate and fruit combining to evoke a cherry liqueur chocolate truffle. Warming overall, it's softer with water, when the balance of tastes remains the same, though lighter.
Finish: Exciting and complex, the conclusion is long, smooth, gently drying and rich in cocoa.
Westland Distillery American Oak Single Malt
Westland American Oak Single Malt Whiskey is made from five exceptional roasted and kilned barley malts the base of which is pale malt grown right in the state of Washington. Drawing inspiration from the rich brewing culture of the Pacific Northwest, several specialty malts (Munich Malt, Extra Special Malt, Pale Chocolate Malt and Brown Malt) are then added before the resulting mash is fermented with a Belgian brewer's yeast for 144 hours. Then, the whiskey is distilled through Westland's copper-pot stills and aged in a combination of Cooper's Select New American Oak, Cooper's Reserve New American Oak, and first fill ex-bourbon barrels.
