Суммаризация отзывов

Отзывы о Cardhu 16-year-old Diageo Special Releases 2022 в основном положительные: хвалят фруктово-сладкий профиль и ненавязчивое влияние ромовой бочки, но некоторые считают его недостаточно особенным для Special Release и отмечают избыток сладости или спиртуозности.

развернуть подробно

В отзывах виски описывают как фруктово-сладкий, с нотами тропических фруктов (манго, ананас, банан, персик), мёда, ванили, карамели, специй и орехов, а также с оттенками рома и сахарного тростника. Ромовая отделка оценивается по-разному: часть авторов отмечает, что она не доминирует и хорошо дополняет спирт, тогда как другие считают её влияние слишком заметным или, наоборот, почти незаметным. Финиш чаще описывают как средний или средне-долгий, сладкий, пряный, иногда с горьковатыми и дубовыми нотами. Мнения о качестве расходятся: есть восторженные оценки, где виски называют очень удачным и лучшим из Special Releases 2022, и более сдержанные, где его считают приятным, но не достаточно особенным для специального релиза и не оправдывающим цену. Критические замечания касаются избыточной сладости, спиртуозности, горечи и недостаточной сложности. Часть отзывов упоминает, что виски меняется после аэрации или при добавлении воды.

I rated this 84 the first time I had it. Trying it a second time about 3 months later. I find the sour notes off putting and it doesn’t seem well integrated.

It has a decent bourbon cask feel. It doesn't really taste like rum...?

Successful dram, fortunately the rum finish is not too dominant, but complements exciting aromas to the spirit.

Нос	90	Acacia flowers, currants, cherries, almonds/toffee, and a hint of pineapple. Smells like acacia flowers and feels like sherry, closer to raisins. A bit of citrus feels more like cherry, but it also has a slightly synthetic feel. Nutty scent of almond/toffee type Sweet and sour scent, somewhat like pineapple
Вкус	80	Lemongrass, honey, pepper, raisins, almonds A hint of lemon and a hint of mint, like lemongrass. bittersweet honey Pepper-based spice Slightly bitter raisin flavor Almond-like flavor
Финиш	78	Mineral, Pineapple The finish is very short. A mineral feeling that feels like a round coating on the tongue. A slight sugary feeling lingers for a long time, In other drinks, the finish is 100, but in this drink, the finish rises sharply for 2-3 seconds, but after that, it feels like it lasts for a long time at around 30. A slight pineapple + pepper feeling comes in and disappears.

RichardPsmith Expert Senior 80 27 feb 2024 3:35 pm

Aroma: Sun-dried apple, white chocolate, brown sugar, rum. The flavors are caramel, rum wood, tanned vanilla and pineapple. The aftertaste is very drying.

I have to say this Cardhu is awesome. My experience so far hasn't been great.

StefanKatonaXXL Expert Senior 88 03 nov 2023 9:25 pm

I was worried about this whisky, because I generally don't like any rum finishes. In my opinion, these two types of spirits simply do not go together... But in this case, fortunately, the influence of the rum barrel is not significant. Otherwise, it's quite a great whisky, even though it's not particularly special for being a special release. It is a strong CARDHU, nothing more.

When I 1st tried this I would have given this 90, It was sweet tropical fruits and well balanced with nice bitter notes. but now its been open a few weeks my opinion has changed a bit. Its still good but I am getting more bitter and more Peat now

Mapl Connoisseur 87 06 nov 2022 10:32 am

It opens with a little water. The nose is beautiful (if you like rum flavors) My summary this year: The Talisker convinced me and is my favorite this year. The Lagavulin is on hold because it always has a few points in the open bottle catching up. Next up this year is the Cardhu worth mentioning as far as the sweet ones go likes notes of rum finish. The singleton is ok, but goes very much in the wine direction. Everyone else disappointed me. Unfortunately I haven't been able to try the Cameronbridge yet My ranking of the SR 2022: Talisker 11-year-old 88 Cardhu 16-year-old 87 Lagavulin 12-year-old 86 (it gets better! towards 88+) Singleton 15-year-old 86 Oban 10-year-old 85 Clynelish 12-year-old 84 Mortlach NAS 82 Cameronbridge 26-yearNot tested

Actually good, but the spiciness of the alcohol is a bit too much of a good thing.

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	83	Menthol freshness, fruit, cookie dough, candy cane and a clear alcohol. I don't notice any rum influence at first.
Вкус	84	Alcoholic spiciness, tropical fruitiness and sweetness. Unfortunately, even with water the spiciness doesn't go away and overshadows the otherwise good taste.
Финиш	85	Fruity-spicy

Too much rum. Sweet.

markjedi1 Connoisseur 86 17 oct 2022 11:14 am

Matured on refill and recharred American oak and finished on Jamaican Pot Still rum barrels. N: Rich nose on white fruit with icing sugar, oatmeal porridge, white chocolate, balsa wood, mandarin and all kinds of green notes. Reminiscent of the beginning of spring, when nature awakens again, so to speak. S: Nice and creamy on the tongue with invigorating Jamaican Allspice, chestnuts and a lot of vanilla and caramel. Evolves into mango and banana, as well as a hint of pineapple. F: In the short to medium aftertaste I get nice orangettes and a persistent touch of spicy oak. C: Damn, that's delicious! 86/100

A really good single malt from Cardhu, probably the best I've tasted so far. The sweetness dominates, but it is well balanced by a wonderful bitterness from nuts and chocolate. The alcohol is strong but goes well with the intense nose and taste. Another lovely bottling from Diageo's Special Releases.

нос · вкус · финиш

Нос	87	Sweet exotic fruits such as mango and pineapple in a broth with rum and syrup. Liquid honey with vanilla and pepper. Almonds and fresh hay along with some hints of grain and wood. A quite lovely and surprisingly good scent.
Вкус	85	After the alcohol has subsided, you taste sweet fruit such as peach and pear. Shades of citrus appear along with banana and some bitterness from nuts and dark chocolate. Notes of not so sweet rum and caramel round off the taste.
Финиш	86	The alcohol hits the tongue and sweet warmth spreads throughout the body. The fruity sweetness flows together with a little salt and wonderful bitter notes of almond and chocolate. This leaves a really nice finish that lasts quite a long time.

It’s a nice whisky, with quite a bit of fruity notes, I especially like the finish, with the tropical fruit. It’s rather nice, but not 160 quid nice – no sir. A very good whisky, but I’m still not convinced. I am expecting something a bit more special from the Special Release. But, hey – it’s me.

The aroma is delicate and elegant, full of fruity notes, but the alcohol is too strong and completely masks the flavor of the wine. It feels like the winemaker has completely lost control of the blend. Luckily, I bought it for less than 400 RMB, but even at this price, it is still not a good wine. It is quite disappointing.
