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.

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.

Clynelish 14 Year Old
Clynelish whisky is closer to an Island style than other mainland malts, with a complex and fragrant nose and an agreeable, long finish that leaves a lingering fresh-fruity flavour. This 14-year-old is a less heavyweight whisky that's deliciously drinkable and makes it an excellent aperitif.

Finish: Quite long, with some salt, dryish yet an attractive, even slightly bitter finish and some spicy oak.
