✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the subtropical climate of Yilan County, Taiwan, the Kavalan Solist Vinho Barrique is a legendary single malt whisky that redefined the spirits world. This expression is matured in American oak wine casks that previously held fine red and white wines. Under the guidance of the late, legendary whisky consultant Dr. Jim Swan, Kavalan utilizes a revolutionary STR (Shave, Toast, Re-char) process on these casks. This meticulous preparation coaxes out deep, caramelized sugars, rich fruit notes, and complex wood spices. The intense Taiwanese heat acts as an accelerator, compressing years of traditional maturation into a rapid, highly concentrated flavor extraction process, resulting in a remarkably mature, multi-layered spirit.
🍾 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.
