The Kavalan distillery has its own cooperage, which allows it to fully control the crucial stage of aging. On the wise advice of Jim Swan, aging in STR (shaved-toasted-recharred) barrels plays an important role, allowing its single malt to reach full maturity more quickly. This version echoes Brandy Cask # A090620014 from the Créations Cellar Book catalog, sharing with it a spiritual character and a generous fruity note. More complex, it takes us into delicately woody and divinely sweet worlds, awakening in us deeply anchored olfactory and taste memories.
Founded in 2005 in Taiwan, Kavalan Distillery has rapidly become a global benchmark for single malt whisky. Benefiting from a unique subtropical climate and pure spring water from the Yilan Mountains, Kavalan crafts whiskies of exceptional richness and aromatic intensity.
