- Description
- Kavalan's Solist series continues with this Moscatel cask expression, where prior sherry residue imparts full-bodied fruit sweetness to the Taiwanese single malt. Moscatel's lighter, more delicate character than Oloroso brings honey, raisin, and subtle floral notes alongside the spirit's core grain character. The maturation in Taiwan's subtropical environment intensifies the wine cask influence without excessive oak. For drinkers preferring lighter sherry cask profiles or those exploring Kavalan's cask-focused range.
