KAVALAN Week – starting tomorrow!

Kavalan is the new kid on the block when it comes to world whiskies. Based in Taiwan, it’s producing some delicious young single malt.

I will be reviewing 4 expressions from Kavalan, starting tomorrow, in cooperation with my good friend Josh of the JSMWS:

• Kavalan 40%
• Kavalan Port finish  40%
• Kavalan ‘Solist’ Ex-Boutbon Cask Strength
• Kavalan ‘Solist’ Ex-Sherry Cask Strength

So, brush up on your Chinese as it’s going to be an interesting week over here at Whisky Israel.

In the meantime enjoy a video about this very interesting distillery.

Slainte!
