✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the subtropical climate of Yilan County, Taiwan, Kavalan's Solist Moscatel Cask is a testament to the distillery's mastery of cask maturation. This exceptional single malt is aged in rare, hand-selected Spanish Moscatel sherry casks, known for their intense floral aromas and luscious sweetness. The extreme heat and humidity of Taiwan accelerate the interaction between the spirit and the wood, achieving in just a few years a depth of character that would take decades in traditional climates. The result is a whisky of opulent complexity, marrying the rich, honeyed, and dried-fruit notes of the Moscatel grape with the robust, tropical fruit-forward character of Kavalan's signature distillate.
🍾 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.
