Reviewed July 16, 2021 (edited March 14, 2023)A wonderful expression is this Kavalan Distillery Select No. 2, far better than the first one. An elegant, fruity and floral single malt. Bottled at 40%abv, burnished gold color. On the nose it is very appealing. Starts with a lulo fruit note (called Naranjilla in my country, lulo is a citric fruit); acetone and earthy profile. After a first sip, the aroma changed into some humid notes as cork or an old library, to then release a citric explosion, like nosing a freshly cut orange. On the palate, it is very fruity but acid. Again this lulo fruit flavor, incredibly nice. Very oily, acid prunes appear. Aftertaste followed mostly the same path. A metallic, sulphuric note. Very citric, with a remarkable orange juice note. Overall, this is not a very expensive whisky and it really is an enjoyable malt. I would drink it without hesitation, you won't regret having a bottle of this. My score for it is 87 over 100.
