Kavalan’s incredible Solist Vinho Barrique expression is allowed to mature in casks that have contained red and white wines, and then re-toasted. Very interesting Taiwanese whisky from King Car.
Nose: Vanilla and caramelized sugars with dark chocolate on top. Ripe melon and mango.
Palate: Kiwi and a delicate blend of citrus fruits burst. Pepper is also present in the background waiting to be noticed.
Finish: Clean and complex hints of chocolate and ripe fruit.
