Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Varies by cask type — typically bright gold to amber depending on bourbon vs sherry cask
Nose
Cask-dependent but at full strength — concentrated tropical fruit, vanilla or dried fruit depending on cask. Full Kavalan character unreduced. A distillery pilgrimage reward
Palate
Full body. Cask strength distillery exclusive — concentrated Kavalan character varying by single cask selection. Typically intense tropical fruit, vanilla or dried fruit, rich oak. Each bottling unique. The reason to visit Yilan
Finish
Long finish. Full cask strength persistence — concentrated flavour from single cask tropical maturation. Each bottle a unique snapshot of Kavalan's warehouses
