    My first and only Cardias was 2021. Amazing!

    Good question to start the video. Shows me where I am in the whiskey hobby because my joy comes from things I know I like that I know I can buy anytime I want!

    Always get the cairdeas. This one was a great release. Took their two best recent releases and combined them. I also make sure to get the glen scotia yearly releases. I used to do ardbeg releases too but they lost me. I only sporadically buy them now

    Nice review. Agree it's a pretty strong release (I got very similar berry notes as well). Cheers!

    Managed to grab a bottle and it’s delicious! Pretty mild peat but you definitely get the PX casks. It’s not a sherry bomb, but the red fruits you mentioned are definitely there.

    It's about damn time! Lol I think this is a great improvement over the past 2, but the 2021 PX is still my favorite by far. I daresay among my top 5-10 of all time. Cheers!

      It was a sad day when I finished the PX a few weeks ago, but grateful that I was able to have one.

    Liked this so much I bought a backup. Only other Cairdeas I had was 2021 PX- wish I still had some left to do comparison, but it was so good that it was empty a long time ago. Cheers!

      I still have a good chunk of my bottle. I'm very happy about that

    “Whatever part of the distillery decided to break that year and they named a bottle after it…” I laughed my a$$ off!

    Just found one today in central Connecticut. But only one on the shelf at the last of four stores I visited. Kinda shocked to not be seeing it everywhere. The last few years are still sitting on shelves (the PX seems to be all gone...cask favorite you say?? 😂)
    Thanks for the video and will be opening this soon!

    @tamebush8285 12 днів тому +2

    So this one's better than the Laphroaig Select? Huh. 😁 I've started looking forward to the Lagavulin Offerman releases, although I don't think they're intended to be an annual release (though it would be if they're on the ball).

  • @williamjefferson6128

    Thanks for your review! The whisky I look forward to every year is the annual single malt release from Tsunuki.

    Your dipped glass makes sense knowing Laphroaig uses ex-Bourbon casks from Maker’s Mark! (Both being owned by Beam-Suntory too)

  • @dreamingwolf8382
    @dreamingwolf8382 12 днів тому +1

    What I look forward to every year are any special releases and collaborations that get put out by Balcones.

    Like or Dislike: Like. This was an exciting review. Have you ever considered enrolling in the Whiskey Vault's sommelier training program?

      I looked into it a bit back when I used to go to Texas for the Bastard's Ball, however, I don't have need for the accreditation. It's a good program though, I've heard good things.

  • @TheReal_DeanD

    I'm happy I got a bottle of this at retail but sadly retail is $115 buy me. This Cairdeas I could justify the price to myself as it is age stated and a blend of the cask favorites. I've always loved the triple wood more. I still remember that warehouse 1 video. I'm so happy I left it on the shelf. When I look at some Laphroaig pricing that is wonky I remember that video.

    • @TheWhiskeyDictionary

    Bunna cask strength for me - although this year’s 21 year old might be a stretch financially…have a couple of bottles of the cairdeas in the stash. Lovely stuff!

  • @BrutusMaximusAurelius

    Sounds like a great whisky! My favorite Laphroaig is the sherry cask 10. How would you compare that one this? Assuming you’ve had the sherry cask.

      Yes! I did a video on it last year. ua-cam.com/video/5ie2G0-5vIA/v-deo.html
