Kavalan Solist Port Cask 58.6%

Kavalan Concertmaster Sherry Finish

$99.99

Matured in Refill Sherry Casks before finishing in First Fill Sherry Casks, this Taiwanese single malt is bottled at 40%.

Producer Description

"The second whisky in the Kavalan Concertmaster series is aged in the distillery's own special reserve of refill casks, then finished in the finest hand-picked Spanish Sherry casks. Wonderfully elegant, soft and fruity with delicate aromas and a complexity of layers, it showcases the art of Kavalan’s blending and the depth of flavours made possible in this unique subtropical climate."

Producer Tasting Note

"Begins with a soft bouquet of sweet vanilla and toffee accompanied in the background by subtle, silky chocolate and layers of crème brûlée, made satisfyingly complex with rich, ripe dark fruits and walnut and almond nuttiness continuing onto the tongue. Round, thick mouthfeel dominated by a dense burst of this series’ signature taste - seductively luscious tropical fruits - elegantly balanced and lingering long on the finish."

Kavalan Triple Sherry Single Malt

$141.99

This is not a surprising release to see from Kavalan, we know they have great sherry matured whiskies, though I am little surprised they chose to bottle it at 40%... chasing the Dalmore crowd I suppose... ;) Regardless, I am sure it will be excellent, Kavalan whiskies rarely disappoint!

Producer Description

"This is the first time we've combined our whisky in three different sherry casks. It's all about multiplying and enriching the sherry flavours to make a distinct whisky that has dried fruits, rich caramel, sweet maltose and tropical fruits as its profile. During this process, the flavours collide through a myriad combination of the three sherry cask whiskies, creating up to 9 distinct sherry dimensions. With its main character the dried fruits of the Oloroso cask, Triple Sherry is embellished with the sweetness of PX and Moscatel casks."

Arran Port Cask Finish

$87.99

Part of Arran's cask finish range, the whisky will have matured in ex-Bourbon casks before finishing in Port Wine Casks. 50%.
