Kavalan Solist Sherry Cask Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Kavalan

“Oh godness! Such greatness! This sherry bomb looks more like aged in a sweet oloroso with a good amount of moscatel cask. It works really well. Get one ( or two )”

92
Kavalan Solist Sherry Taiwanese Single Malt Whisky
One of the most sought after whiskies from Kavalan's range, matured in sherry casks and one of the most sherried whiskies we've ever had. Big, rich and dark - an impressive dram from the Taiwanese distillery.
Many thanks to King Car Distillery for this sample of Kavalan. I have hear that these great whiskies will soon be available in USA and UK. They really worth the waiting.

This dram has a treacle-like color.

Nose (92): more than average. varnish, honey, raisins, citrus, vanilla. There is greatness inside this whisky

Palate (92): powerful, oily. raisins, wood, honey, citrus, spices, leather, chocolate.

Finish (92): longer than average. raisins, honey, tropical fruits.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Kavalan Solist Sherry Taiwanese Single Malt Whisky with 92 points over 100.

Some people have told me that they didn’t like this one. I find it quite interesting but smells and taste more like a brandy than like a whisky. Perhaps the sherry cask have had too much influencie on the whisky. Anyway, in my opinion is a whisky that is worth trying.
