Kavalan Solist Rum Cask
The sub-tropical climate of Taiwan, and the pure glacial water from the mountains have had a unique effect on Kavalan whisky matured in these rum casks.
Color:
Deep, burnished gold like a Caribbean sunset
Nose:
A honeyed sweetness is laced through the fruity character of the Kavalan whisky courtesy of the influence of the rum cask. Alluring aromas of golden syrup cake, waxed lemon, pistachio-studded nougat, creamy vanilla, stewed apple, papaya and faint white pepper are exuded from the glass.
Palate:
A gloriously thick texture saturated with melon and papaya sweetness, it is showered with an array of spices, clove, and root ginger delivered at cask strength, before it settles down to a sustained final phase of light toffee, golden sultana, and Kendal mint cake.
Tasting:
Use the Kavalan Rum Single Malt Whisky neat sipping or pair exquisitely with chocolate.
