Kavalan King Car Conductor Single Malt Whisky [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Taiwanese single malt that showcases the artistry of multiple cask maturation?

The Kavalan King Car Conductor represents Taiwan’s whisky mastery through an intricate blend of eight different cask types, with a higher proportion of ex-Sherry casks creating exceptional depth. This non-chill filtered expression demonstrates why Kavalan has earned international acclaim, offering complexity that rivals our Kavalan Oloroso Sherry Oak while maintaining its own distinctive character. For those exploring premium Asian whiskies, this pairs beautifully with selections like Togouchi Premium Japanese Blended Whisky.

• Distillery: King Car Kavalan, Yilan County – Taiwan’s pioneering whisky producer since 2005
• Region: Taiwan – subtropical climate accelerates maturation for rich, complex flavors
• ABV: 40% – perfectly balanced strength for neat sipping or with a splash of water
• Volume: 700ml
• Maturation: Eight different cask types with emphasis on ex-Sherry barrels
• Tasting Notes: Vivid amber color opens to vanilla, ripe oranges, and sweet apricots on the nose. The palate delivers warming honey, vanilla, and oak with hints of cinnamon and cloves, finishing with balanced sweetness and pepper spices
• Best Served: Neat at room temperature in a Glencairn glass, or with a few drops of water to unlock additional citrus and coconut notes

Our team at Mr. Chow’s Liquor Store has found this expression particularly rewarding when sampled alongside other premium Asian whiskies. The Gold Medal winner at the 2017 San Francisco World Spirits Competition reveals new layers with each sip, making it an excellent bridge between approachable and complex.
