Kavalan Solist Pedro Ximenez Sherry Cask Single Malt 700mL
Kavalan Solist Pedro Ximenez Sherry Cask Single Malt 700mL
Situated at the cross boundary of Yi-Lan mountains, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the King Car distillery has been creating something that many thought would never happen: Taiwanese whisky. Naming their brand after the indigenous people that originally inhabited that area, the Kavalan, was a way to show how genuine King Car Group wanted to be with their new project. They wanted to make whisky truly inspired by Taiwan for the people living there, and to introduce the world to the unique ideas and directions their expressions can take.
This release from Kavalan's Solist series has been aged in casks which held the sweetest type of sherry: Pedro Ximenez. This is a warming and fruity whisky with notes of juicy raisins and honey syrup.
Aromas of fruitcake, walnut, damson jam and a hint of lemongrass.
Chocolate-coated pineapple on the palate, with notes of cardamom, more dried fruits and malt loaf.
Sherry-soaked plums and rum-drizzled raisins on the finish. With a little lemongrass once again.
700mL | 57.1% ABV
