The Kavalan Solist Pedro Ximenez PX110304009A is a distinguished Taiwanese single malt whisky, crafted in 2011 and bottled in 2016. Limited to only 552 bottles, this whisky exemplifies the meticulous artistry of Kavalan Distillery, located in the vibrant region of Taiwan. Matured in an ex-Pedro Ximenez cask, this expression is a part of Kavalan's acclaimed Solist series, renowned for its richness and depth. The high ABV of 57.1% lends this whisky a powerful yet harmonious character, with an alluring dark amber hue.
The Pedro Ximenez Sherry casks, used in this maturation process, are known for their incredibly sweet profile, derived from the sun-dried grapes under the Asoleo method, which intensifies not only the sweetness but also preserves the natural acidity of the fruit. This aging process imparts the Kavalan Solist with layers of rich, fruity, and syrupy sweetness, creating a whisky that is both complex and indulgent.
On the nose, one can detect warming and fruity aromas of plump raisins, lemongrass, and honeycomb. The palate reveals a delightful mix of toffee, ground nutmeg, and smoked rosemary, leading to a long-lasting finish characterized by the flavors of raisins, sugar, and oak.
