Wonderful but pricey dram, handle with care.

An unusual whisky, not for beginners I'd say. To call it a sherry monster is an understatement. Needs a good dose of water and 20 minutes in the glass. First taste was too overpowering and busy but eventually it blossomed nicely. Funky, fermented tropical fruits such as lychee, mango pineapple, a lot of licorice, raisin, cinnamon, almost fizzy on the finish. Bizarre, utterly delicious. It's a shame this serious carries such a high premium but it is something special and different and personally I prefer it to any Japanese whisky I've tasted.

Rich....

I completely disagree with the last two reviews. It's stunning....great cakey, sweet drinking chocolate on the nose, very sweet, black treacle and something green or a tinge of rubber (!?) mixed with sweet sugary treacle, a tad vanilla. It's very distinctive but so good. Much the same tasting, massive sherry bomb (no bigger one) , porty richness, sweet, thick and fruity, finish is long and powerful with a good amount of liquorice. Totally agree once you hit this it's going to overpower a lot of others and I can understand why some may find this quite powerful and different. It's a monster with cheese, especially a good parmesan. Easy 5 stars.

Disappointed

Awful tasting whiskey. expected better as this is the first time trying a kavalan whiskey. over powering, undesirable taste.

Okay but not worth price tag

This is actually quite disappointing. There is plenty of sherry in it, true. But the taste of it is shallow, and lacks certain level of complexity. This does not have age statement on it, but I suspect the spirit did not simply spend enough time in a cask. And the cask had sherry still floating at the bottom for sure ;). For this price I would expect something way better. For a quality sherry matured whiskies, stick with Glenfarclas.

Solist with such a punch...but smooth!

Most drinkers might find it a little too strong taking it neat. But once it settle down on your palate, it's intense flavour is lasting and really great! Worth a try!
