Kavalan Whisky
The island that beat Scotland: Kavalan — Taiwan's single malt whisky (King Car distillery, Yilan, since 2005; first release 2008), matured fast in the subtropical heat (the 'angel's share' is huge, the whiskies taste far older), winning the world's top whisky awards from 2015.
What it is
The island that beat Scotland: Kavalan — Taiwan's single malt whisky (King Car distillery, Yilan, since 2005; first release 2008), matured fast in the subtropical heat (the 'angel's share' is huge, the whiskies taste far older), winning the world's top whisky awards from 2015. Origins: Taiwan lifted its distilling monopoly in 2002; the tea-and-food conglomerate King Car built Kavalan under the late Dr Jim Swan's guidance. Made from: malted barley, distilled in Scottish-style pots, aged in sherry/bourbon/wine casks in Yilan's humidity. How it's made: 1) Distil in copper. 2) Age in the heat — 5 Taiwanese years mature like 15 Scottish. 3) The Solist cask-strength series is the icon. Served: neat at whisky bars from Taipei to the world. Flavor: tropical fruit, mango, dark sherry oak. Strength: 40-59% (Solist at cask strength). Culture: Kavalan proved great whisky needs no particular latitude — a point of Taiwanese pride. See also: Kinmen Kaoliang.
