Kavalan 'Lan' Single Malt Whisky, 700ml

Taiwan's Kavalan created this single malt as a tribute to its birthplace in Yilan County. The Mandarin symbol for Lán means 'orchid', and this whisky showcases a delightfully floral profile thanks to maturation in a combo of bourbon barrels, Port casks, and STR (shaved, toasted, and re-charred) Vinho wine casks. With waves of fresh vanilla, floral red fruit sweetness, and roasted, caramelised nuts, it's an impressive addition to the Kavalan core range.

Tasting note:

Nose: Citrus blossom, floral tea, and vanilla pods open the way for notes of chocolatey malt, candied nuts, woody spice, and hints of Wine Gums.

Palate: Biscuity malt, forest fruits, cinnamon sticks, and chocolate-coated cherries, with hazelnut cream and rich oak char beneath.

Finish: Dark spices, caramelised nuts, layers of vinous oak, and a touch of pepper.
