This elegant bottling impressively demonstrates how Taiwan's tropical climate and first-class Spanish Oloroso sherry casks blend to create a harmonious taste experience.

Taste experience:

This Kavalan impresses with a rich, multifaceted character, shaped by its exclusive maturation in first-fill Oloroso sherry casks. The intense interaction between the warm Taiwanese climate and the Spanish casks lends the whisky an impressive complexity of sweet dried fruits, spicy oak, and bittersweet chocolate notes.
