Manuka Smoked Single Malt. Aged by New Zealand's irrepressible tide of climate and season to incite a whisky whose character is at variance with the volatility of its own creation.
Growing Wings is the second expression of The Cardrona Single Malt Whisky coming of age. Aged for five years in a marriage of specially selected ex-Oloroso Sherry butts and ex-Bourbon barrels, Growing Wings is decadently rich and delivered at natural cask strength. Dark fruits on the nose, and sticky treacle in the mouth. Opens with water.
