This is a 16 year old Cardhu single malt from the 2022 Diageo Special Releases. It takes its name from a legend in which the ancient black rock beneath the distillery cracked open one day and released a warmth that created a tropical paradise, scented with passion-flower and pineapple.
The nose opens with lemon zest, white grape, pink grapefruit and ripe mango over a faintly mossy base, with spicy, woody notes above. The palate is creamy and full, with home-made rum toffee, spiced pineapple and green banana against crisp, drying oak. The finish is quite short, sweet and peppery. A drop of water adds white pepper to the nose and a smoother texture.
