Kavalan Solist Virgin Oak Team Canada L

Kavalan Solist Virgin Oak Team Canada L is an ultra-premium, single-cask-strength single malt whisky produced by King Car Kavalan Distillery in Yilan County, Taiwan. This bottling is an exclusive private single-cask selection curated specifically for the Canadian market ("Team Canada"), with the "L" designating the specific barrel allocation in this release.

It offers a vibrant, complex profile featuring sweet tropical fruits, honey, rich beeswax, and warming oak spices unique to this individual barrel.
