Kavalan Solist Manzanilla Single Malt Whisky 0,70L 58,6% The Kavalan Distillery in Taiwan was founded in 2005 by T.T. Lee, president of the Taiwanese food company King Car Group. His greatest wish was to open his own whiskey distillery in Taiwan. Kavalan is the name of the Yilan region, which lies southeast of the capital Taipei. An important reason for choosing this location is the excellent water quality. In Yilan, there is enough cold spring water flowing through Snow Mountain. The Kavalan Distillery's Solist series includes specially selected barrels from the Master Blenders. These barrels are known for their individual character and fine quality. This whiskey is matured in Manzanilla sherry casks.
