Cardhu Game of Thrones
| Description: | Cardhu Gold Reserve Game of Thrones House TargaryenThis bottle of Cardhu is inspired by Scotland's own mother of dragons, the rebellious Helen Cumming, who, alongside her daughter, trail-blazed their success in making Cardhu one of the most iconic names in Scotch.Representing House Targaryen, this features its three-headed dragon on the label. Malt and honey on the subtle nose, with a hint of cinnamon. Medium-bodied, with milk chocolate, caramel, and youthful oak. Jaffa orange and gentle spice in the relatively short, spiky finish.The smash-hit series Game of Thrones has teamed up with spirits giant Diageo, to create eight rare Scotches inspired by the royal Houses of Westeros. In honor if the eight and final season of the Emmy-winning show each bottle tells the tale of each of the Seven Kingdoms. These iconic whiskies serve as must-have collectibles for Game of Thrones and whisky adorers.Inspired by the fierce Daenerys Targaryen, this single malt celebrates the fiery spirit of the legendary women of The Cardhu Distillery. Pioneered by Helen Cumming and her daughter-in-law Elizabeth during the 1800s, this was a female force to be reckoned with, trailblazing their success in time when the whisky industry was almost entirely male-dominated.Cardhu was founded just one year after the passage of the Excise Act, in the Speyside region of Scotland. Helen would disguise the mashing and fermenting of grains at the distillery as bread-making, in an effort to avoid the taxes levied on distilled spirits.While the tax collectors dispatched by the Crown enjoyed the tea and crumpets that she prepared dawning a red flag on the roof of her barn in order to warn her neighbors that Excise Officers had descended upon the region. By the turn of the century, Cardhu Distillery had earned a reputation as one of Scotland's finest producers of single malt Scotch whisky.This incredible Speyside whisky possesses notes of baked apple and spice on the nose, transitioning into a rich caramel palate with hints of baking spice, and orchard fruits. |
