Kavalan Concertmaster Port Cask Finish Single Malt Whisky is first matured in specially selected American oak casks before being finished in Portuguese ruby Port wine barriques — a finishing process that mellows the flavours, adds an indefinable smoothness, and imparts the rich, brownish-red colour and natural sweetness that define this expression. Tropical fruitiness with honey, vanilla, coconut, and candy floss on the nose and palate, rich-bodied and complex, with the Port cask influence weaving through every layer. Pairs indulgently with chocolate.

Appearance

Brownish red — the distinctive, rich colour of a single malt finished in Portuguese ruby Port wine barriques, with a depth and warmth that sets Concertmaster apart from every other expression in the Kavalan range.

Aroma

Tropical fruitiness with honey, vanilla, coconut, and candy floss — the signature Kavalan tropical fruit character beautifully complemented by the natural sweetness and richness that Portuguese ruby Port casks deliver.

Palate

Rich-bodied and naturally sweet — tropical fruitiness, honey, vanilla, coconut, and candy floss carry through a palate of genuine complexity and indefinable smoothness, with the Port barriques mellowing every element into a harmonious and deeply satisfying whole.

Pairs With

Dark chocolate, milk chocolate truffles, and chocolate desserts — Kavalan Concertmaster Port Cask Finish pairs indulgently with chocolate, making it even more delicious. Also excellent with dried fruits, soft cheeses, and a good book.

Production Notes

Kavalan Concertmaster Port Cask Finish is first matured in specially selected American oak casks before being finished in Portuguese ruby Port wine barriques — using the Port casks as the main flavour influence to mellow the whisky, add indefinable smoothness, and build the rich body, natural sweetness, and complexity that define this expression. Kavalan sources the mineral-rich meltwaters of Snow Mountain, and the whisky is aged in a unique combination of intense heat and humidity together with sea and mountain breezes — conditions that accelerate maturation and create the quality, smoothness, and fruity character for which Kavalan is celebrated the world over.

Producer History

Kavalan has been pioneering the art of single malt whisky in Yilan County, Taiwan, since 2005 — taking its name from Yilan’s old name, a land of blessings where entrepreneur Mr. Tien-Tsai Lee dreamed of a new whisky homeland and a century-old distillery to last generations. His ambition to create Taiwan’s first whisky took him across the old world to the sacred distilleries of Scotland and Japan — knowing that to compete, Taiwan must be world-class, and testing every sinew of his resolve to achieve it. Backed by King Car Group and its more than 40 years of beverage experience, and bringing together a highly skilled R&D team that carries on the legacy of renowned whisky specialist the late Dr. Jim Swan, Kavalan has fulfilled that vision — and then some.
