To mature their Kavalan Solist Vinho Barrique expression, the King Car distillers in Taiwan use casks which have held both red and white wines, before being re-toasted. The whisky is fully matured in these casks to help their Taiwanese single malt develop a bold, expressive flavour profile brimming with berry, plum and caramelised sugar notes. At the Los Angeles Wine & Spirits Competition this exciting Taiwanese whisky received a Gold Medal and an impressive score of 91 out of 100.
Amazing taste. More complex and balanced than The Solist Sherry expression.
I was truly stunned by this bottle. It has so much to offer. Complex and sweet. Dried figs and some bananacake. Strong and in no need of water.
I was stunned by the full and powerful flavor of this whisky. It can compete with some verry good Scottish whisky's out there.
I believe the winning cask number is W090220051 58.6% from Whisky Magazine.
To those stating the winning cask number, how do you know this? I cannot find those details anywhere??
