Whisky review 081 : Penderyn Legend

The two Chris's visit the Welsh Valleys and try Penderyn Legend. We've had this knocking about for a couple of years and there's still enough left to do a review.

As per usual, it may not be available any more directly from Penderyn but is it worth hunting down?

What they say:

Legend is a Madeira-finish single malt whisky, bottled at 41% abv. (43% in the USA)

Tasting Notes

Nose: Aromas of fresh apples and citrus fruits intermingle with cream fudge and sultana raisins to create a complex yet fresh, clean and well-balanced whisky.

Palate: Incredibly smooth and both fresh and rich dried fruits abound. Delicate and sweet on the palate with just a hint of bitterness to remain refreshing.

Finish: A long aftertaste of Madeira cake and sultanas.
