Description
Appearance: The sub-title for Penderyn’s Gold line of whiskies is “Aur Cymru,” which translates to “Welsh Gold.” In the glass, I’d say that the Madeira visually occupies a category that I’d describe as closer to a pale blond than gold, but hey, close enough. It has thin, slow legs.
Nose: A sweet nose, somewhat sharp, with a hint of liquorish, black cherry, and raisins.
Palate: The palate starts off with a bit of a kick, cinnamon and cloves, and then crawls back onto the tongue into a sweet mid-mouth warmth, finishing with elements of cantaloupe, vanilla, and just a hint of celery. A bit of cloying bitter-sweetness hangs around once all the other flavors have left. You definitely go on a bit of a flavor journey with this one.
