Kavalan Distillery Select No.2 Single Malt Whisky [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Taiwanese single malt that showcases masterful blending artistry and exceptional value for premium whisky enthusiasts?

As a certified spirits specialist at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store, I’m impressed by how Kavalan Distillery Select No.2 Single Malt Whisky demonstrates the distillery’s blending prowess. This Premium expression combines carefully selected casks to create a balanced and approachable profile that rivals Scottish classics. Unlike the bold intensity of Kavalan Solist Ex-Bourbon Cask, this Select No.2 offers refined complexity at a more accessible strength. It sits beautifully alongside Kavalan Distillery Select No.1 in the core range.

• Distillery: Kavalan – Taiwan’s pioneering whisky distillery, established 2005
• Region: Yilan County, Taiwan – subtropical climate accelerates maturation
• ABV: 40% – smooth, approachable strength highlighting delicate fruit notes
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: Blend of American oak, sherry, and wine casks
• Tasting Notes: Nose reveals tropical mango, vanilla custard, and light florals. Palate delivers creamy butterscotch, ripe stone fruits, and subtle oak spice. Finish is smooth with lingering coconut sweetness
• Best Served: Neat in a tulip glass at room temperature, or with a splash of mineral water

Our spirits specialists at Mr. Chow’s Liquor have found this expression particularly food-friendly compared to higher-proof Kavalan releases. After evaluating dozens of Taiwanese whiskies, this stands out for its remarkable balance between tropical fruit character and oak influence at this price point.

Ideal for: Chinese New Year gifting, introducing friends to premium Asian whisky, or expanding your collection beyond Scotch. Pairs with: Rich char siu pork, aromatic beef rendang, creamy salted egg prawns, or dark chocolate desserts. Recommended for: Whisky enthusiasts seeking excellent craftsmanship at RM 270, and those who appreciate Kavalan King Car Conductor’s sophisticated blending approach.
