"If water is essential to whisky production, it follows that the character of the water used can have a considerable influence on the profile of the spirit. The founder of the Kavalan distillery has spent years searching for the perfect site, with the ideal water supply. He chose Yilan as the site for its abundant supply of cold, spring water flowing through the Snow Mountain. Kavalan, the earliest tribe that inhabited Yilan, represents sincerity, honesty, and the spirit of step-by-step cultivation. Kavalan distillery continues the tradition of passionate commitment to creating the premium whisky. The effort goes into every drop of new make spirit and every seasoned cask we choose. Coupled with the mastery of the blender, they ensure the silky smoothness and distinctive flavours of Kavalan whisky." —producer |

"Pale amber color. Aromas of roasted stone fruits, honeyed cereal, and sesame nougat with a silky, dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body and a tropical citrus, vanilla salted caramel, sweet cream and pepper accented finish. A very nicely balanced and easy drinking whisky for all occasions." —Beverage Testing Institute Gold, 2014 International Review of Spirits |
