Matured in used American oak wine barrels that have been toasted and re-charred, this whisky was named the World's Best Single Malt Whisky at Whisky Magazine's 2015 World Whiskies Awards. Kavalan Taiwanese Single Malt Whisky is crafted by the King Car Group, which was established in Taiwan in 1956. The whisky is made entirely in Taiwan from malted barley that is imported from Scotland. Once the grains arrive in Taiwan, they are milled and mashed, before being fermented with water drawn from springs situated in the Central and Snowy Mountain ranges. This incredibly pure and quintessentially Taiwanese water source adds slightly mineral, round flavors to the whisky. Following fermentation, the wash is distilled through lantern-shaped copper-pot stills that were previously used at the Glenlivet Distillery. Due to the small size and shape of the stills, the whisky interacts with the copper, resulting in an incredibly pure and fruity flavor profile.…

Great Bourbon Nose is pleasant yet nothing dynamite. Taste is sweet. Earthy colored sugar/molasses. Fruity as well. Like berries. This bourbon sparkles on the completion however. Complex and parts to consider dismember. Every last bit of it is charming.

This is the eighth Kavalan I've attempted and fourth Solist and I'd rate it number 2 in general behind the Solist Sherry container. When given time a water it transforms into an extraordinary measure. Consumed strawberries prunes cherry and increasingly dull stone natural products. The completion is somewhat drying and tart nearly. I like it yet wouldn't accepting a jug at even a 1/third the cost. I'd love to attempt the Solist Manzanilla Moscatel and Amontillado one day yet dependent on my involvement in Kavalan to date I wouldn't feel certain buying an entire jug and realizing I'd like drinking every last bit of it.
