Kavalan Solist Port Cask Single Malt

Single malt Taiwanese whisky from the King Car Distillery, released as part of their Kavalan Solist range. It was matured in a cask which previously held tasty Port, imparting in-your-face fruitiness. Nose: Light oak spice as it opens, before notes of refreshing tangerine and dried fruit develop. Palate: Chocolate éclairs, summer berries (think blackcurrant and strawberries atop a cheesecake) and vanilla-forward malt. Finish: A zesty hint of passion fruit and lemon appears on the finish.
