Cardhu 12 ans 200th Anniversaire 70cl 40°
This Cardhu 12-year-old 200th Anniversary edition is a bold tribute to the distillery’s heritage. Exclusively aged in former red wine casks, it embraces its uniqueness while retaining the elegant finesse characteristic of Speyside. On the nose, sumptuous aromas of red berries, baked apple and icing sugar mingle gracefully, with hints of dark chocolate and caramel. The palate is indulgent—ripe red fruit, cinnamon and dark chocolate lead into a long, spicy finish adorned with vanilla. A courageous, silky, and rounded dram—an uncommon sensory journey well worth exploring.

The Cardhu distillery has been founded by smuggler John Cumming, in 1824, in Speyside, Scotland.
The whisky produced by the distillery is the main ingredient of the famous Johnie Walker blend. The unique character of Cardhu ranks the distillery in the Classic Malts Selection. Created more than 20 years ago, this selection recognizes Single Malts crafted in the tradition of iconic distilleries, and offers the most impressive whisky styles Scotland has to offer.
Standing on the wind-whipped heather fields that surround the Cardhu distillery today, the verdant lilac grounds belie the truth of Cardhu’s origin name, ‘the black rock’, Carn Dubh. From this splendoured hill, the Cardhu distillery grew with unmistakable allure. From its iconic red door, the distillery welcomed passers-by for centuries, inviting them with a vibrant whisky, crisp with the sweet taste of Scottish orchards.
Three times awarded a gold medal at International Whisky Competition 2012, 2013 and 2014, this Single Malt Penderyn Madeira whisky merits special attention.
