This is the first expression launched in the name of King Car, which is the Taiwanese conglomerate that own Kavalan Whisky. The King Car single malt represents the company's diversity and multi-faceted business. Excellently clean and freshly fruity, Kavalan King Car brings together eight different casks that are diverse with pleasantly floral flavours, delicate fruity notes and creamy layers on the palate. This is a mouth filling and nuanced whisky waiting to be discovered by each individual connoisseur. A grand masterpiece to represent and bear the name of the Group King Car.

Pair rich dishes, such as in Taiwanese, Thai and Japanese cuisine, with this stellar dram.

Many years ago I gained an early impression that King Car Kavalan Whisky is very close to a recognised Speyside style after just two years of aging. The continued excellence of Kavalan’s whisky has vindicated that initial impression. Any it proved beyond doubt that even in a subtropical zone like this, whisky can offer such a superb flavour profile.” - Jim Murray

Kavalan ages its whisky in the hot and humid climate of Yilan, Taiwan. This subtropical environment accelerates the maturation of the spirit, ensuring a richer, more complex drop in terms of body and flavour. Kavalan refer to this unique ripening process as Maturity Redefined which creates the signature character and style of their whisky.

Tasting Note: Vivid amber. A touch of papaya, banana and green apple. Sweet, rich with vanilla and banana, but also coconut, a slight pleasant bitterness balancing the sweetness.

    Published by David L on 20th Feb 2020

    I have had a number of the Kavalan offerings and this is my favourite. Very smooth. Very drinkable. Nothing needs to be added just sip and enjoy. It is the only single malt I have that my wife really enjoys!
