Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Light gold with pale straw highlights; lighter than Classic, very clean appearance
Nose
Light and delicate — vanilla, pear, melon, light honey, gentle floral notes. Clean malt, subtle tropical fruit. Approachable and fresh, refill casks let the spirit character shine
Palate
Light body. Clean and easy — vanilla, pear, melon, light honey, gentle malt sweetness. Very smooth, almost delicate. Designed as a mixer-friendly or entry expression
Finish
Short to medium finish. Clean vanilla, gentle fruit, light malt. Fades cleanly. The most approachable Kavalan — gateway to the range
