Cardhu Amber Rock Single Malt Scotch Whisky. Image courtesy Diageo.This Speyside single malt has a smooth and well-balanced nose with hints of nuts, a nice maltiness, and notes of banana chips, coconut, and vanilla. The taste has mild spices, black tea with honey and lemon, soft touches of ginger and nutmeg, and a hint of maltiness. The finish lingers delicately on the tongue with soft spices and honey sweetness. (September, 2015)
