€333.60 inc. VAT
Kavalan Solist Fino Sherry is matured in hand-selected Fino Sherry casks, known for their delicate and dry character. Bottled at cask strength, this expression showcases the finesse and complexity of Fino Sherry influence.
This is the most precious expression. Entirely aged in Fino sherry casks, the driest and rarest of all sherries, Kavalan Fino Sherry Cask encompasses gourmet flavours with toffee, salted caramel, honey, and fruit flavours of mango and green apple. Smoked wood notes to its particular taste. On the nose, the whisky is elegant and refined, with notes of citrus peel, and almond, along with subtle hints of vanilla, dried fruits, and a delicate floral undertone. It’s light and smooth on the palate, with flavours of fresh orchard fruits, honey, and toasted nuts. The Fino Sherry cask imparts a dry, crisp character, balanced by a gentle sweetness and a touch of oak. The finish is long, with lingering notes of citrus and a hint of salty “Fino” tang.

Description
Our experts say : Grilled pineapple, cinnamon-topped apple pie, a hint of coastal breeze. Black tea, sultanas and honey on the nose. A nice palate of juicy fruits, apricot, raisin and plum by the bucket-load, and a finish of candied orange peels, brandied cherries and a pinch of sea salt.
The BTI Judging Panel described the Kavalan Fino Sherry expression as exhibiting : Aromas of black walnut, Calvados barrel aged Norman Cidre, and dried figs. The palate features flavors of chocolate covered dried figs, black cherries, and rancio. A contemplative and complex sipper that represents why these whiskies deserve to be mentioned as some of the finest in the world; the aromas continue to develop and show balance and elegance at every turn.
