Kavalan Triple Sherry Cask

Taiwanese Single Malt Whisky
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 40%

First bottled in 2021, Kavalan Triple Sherry Cask, as the name suggests, is an assemblage of whisky aged in three types of sherry casks, with Oloroso, Pedro Ximenez and Moscatel sherries all lending their distinctive attributes to Kavalan's Taiwanese single malt.

Bottled at 40%, this is a world away from the massive full strength Kavalan Solist sherry releases, but still packs plenty of flavour. A rich, easy-drinking Kavalan that stands up very well to many much older sherried Speysides.

Tasting Notes

Official Tasting Notes

Colour: Deep scarlet.

Nose: Ripe, mature berries and dried fruits fill the nose, with fresh scents of grapes and citrus interlaced with chocolate brownie and toffee sweetness. Hints of cinnamon, clover and spiciness, blending into pleasant oakiness and fragrant rosemary.

Palate: Lingering flavours of sherry dried fruits. Warm and smooth with a mellow texture. A lively flamenco dance of candied fruit, caramel, and honey sweetness on the taste buds. Multi-layered and perfectly balanced, it's an unforgettable feast for the palate.

Tasting: Best paired with desserts, dark chocolates, nuts, seafood salads, smoky meats and mildly spicy cuisine.
