Description

A historic and controversial release from Cardhu, this 12 Year Old Pure Malt was introduced by Diageo around 2002 as a vatted/blended malt created by blending Cardhu with whiskies from other Speyside distilleries to cope with surging demand, before reverting back to single malt in 2004.
