The Taiwanese Masters of Whisky, Kavalan, have released a new very interesting expression, although a little low on Abv.
This one is called "Triple Sherry" and as the name suggests, it has been matured in Oloroso, Pedro Ximenez and Moscatel casks.
Bottled at 40%abv, it has a lovely red color.
On the nose, this is exactly what you expect, a sherry madness. Lots of dehydrated oranges, red apples, lemongrass, watermelon and hazelnuts. Very fruity.
On the palate this is very rich. Very winey; px sherry and blackberries.
Aftertaste is all about lemoncello and tangerine notes. Very acid and a nice sour profile.
Overall, this is a lovely everyday dram. Not expensive at all, it is hard to think a proper rival to this one for the price it goes. Incredibly enjoyable, i truly recommend this single malt. My score for it is 84 over 100.
