✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the subtropical climate of Yilan County, Taiwan, Kavalan's Solist Pedro Ximenez (PX) Cask is a masterpiece of rapid maturation. The distillery harnesses the intense heat of Taiwan, which dramatically accelerates the interaction between the spirit and the wood, resulting in a whisky of astonishing depth and complexity at a fraction of the time required in traditional climates. This expression is matured exclusively in hand-selected Pedro Ximenez sherry casks—often referred to as the 'king of sweet sherries.' The lush, syrupy character of the PX cask infuses the single malt with decadent layers of dark stone fruits, rich cocoa, and warm spices, creating a dramatic and opulent sensory profile that has earned global acclaim.
🍾 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.
