✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Kavalan's Concertmaster Port Cask Finish is a masterclass in the art of cask finishing, showcasing how Taiwan's unique subtropical climate interacts with traditional European oak. Located in Yilan County, where the cold, pure meltwaters of the Snow Mountain range meet the humid air of the Pacific, the distillery benefits from an accelerated maturation process. This 'angel's share' extraction is exceptionally high, resulting in a spirit of remarkable depth at a young age. The Concertmaster begins its journey in refill American oak casks before being transferred to a harmonious blend of Ruby, Tawny, and Vintage Port casks. This finishing process imparts a beautiful ruby-red hue and infuses the distillery's signature tropical fruit profile with rich, jammy notes of red berries, chocolate, and warming spices.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Kavalan Distillery blev grundlagt i 2005 af King Car Group under ledelse af grundlægger Tien-Tsai Lee og er beliggende i Yuanshan i Yilan-distriktet på Taiwan. Destilleriet er opkaldt efter det oprindelige Kavalan-folk fra Yilan-sletten og var pioner inden for taiwansk single malt whisky i verdensklasse, skabt på mineralrigt smeltevand fra den nærliggende Snow Mountain-bjergkæde. Kavalan drager fuld fordel af Taiwans intense, subtropiske klima, som fremskynder fadmodningen markant og tilfører whiskyen en usædvanlig kompleks, rig og moden smagsprofil på ganske kort tid. Destilleriet har opnået global anerkendelse for sin mangfoldigt præmierede Solist-serie, der hyldes for sine udsøgte fadstyrke-aftapninger modnet på henholdsvis sherry-, portvins-, ex-bourbon- og Vinho Barrique-fade.
