Kavalan Whisky Solist Ex-Bourbon Single Malt
Kavalan Solist Ex-Bourbon is a cask-strength, non-chill-filtered single malt whisky from Taiwan, matured in fresh American ex-bourbon casks. It offers a complex profile of rich vanilla, tropical fruit (like mango, pineapple, and coconut), and spices, with a smooth, oily texture and a long, warm finish. It's recommended to add a few drops of water or ice to tame its potent alcohol and unlock further layers of flavor, such as caramel, butterscotch, and subtle oak notes.

Part of the King Car Group family of brands.
Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.

Nose: Fresh and clean tropical fruits like mango and papaya are balanced by sweet vanilla, creamy coconut, and oak spices.
Palate: The silky, complex texture presents a well-balanced mix of rich vanilla, natural sweetness, caramel, and a gentle oak spice.
Finish: A long and elegant finish that lingers with notes of tropical fruit, toasted coconut, and a drying oak and spice.
