Breckenridge Tasting Notes
Marking the five-year anniversary of the first spirit laid down at Cardrona, the ‘Growing Wings’ release cask strength whisky is aged in a single Bourbon barrel which was filled during Cardrona's first year of distilling. A rich, buttery dram with lots of American oak vanilla on the nose and stewed pears on the palate.
About Cardrona Growing Wings
Cardrona’s progress report series allow whisky lovers around the world to follow the spirit’s progress towards its future signature 10 year old. Cardrona’s icon is named in honour of its guard, the New Zealand falcon. The falcon is often found perched at the end of the barrel house, and the bird famously stood on the neck of the wash still as it was craned into the distillery.
