KAVALAN 7 ans 2015 ex-Bourbon Cask B150716058A Antipodes

$280.00

Quantity limited to 1 bottle.

Equipped with ten 12,000 litre capacity wash stills and ten 7,000-litre spirit stills, the Kavalan distillery immediately stands out for its impressive size. To obtain a rich and complex spirit, a large share of the foreshots and feints are removed during the second distillation. This version matured in an ex-bourbon cask reveals a multitude of fruits as diverse as they are intense. The very dynamic palette of aromas and flavours is continually changing, demonstrating a vitality and freshness that ceaselessly pushes the boundaries of the tasting.

Tasting Notes


Colour : Burnished gold with copper tinges.

Nose : Full-bodied, subtle. The particularly interesting first nose reveals floral (lilac, carnation, hyacinth), fruity (passion fruit, Kaffir lime, pineapple), medicinal (tiger balm, camphor), spicy (cardamom, star anise) and liquorice notes. Allowed to breathe, the aroma palette develops a very lyrical tertiary register (dried leaves, sweet chestnut, humus, hazelnut). New heady florals then appear (gladiolus, freesia). Outstanding!

Palate : Distinguished, slender. Full of an energy that sees citrus fruits (lemon, orange) take centre stage, the attack quickly moves into incredibly smooth notes of malt and vanilla. On the mid-palate, vanilla turns into milk chocolate and exotic fruits (guava, persimmon) reveal a beautifully tangy backdrop. Gradually and very poetically, the grains of dust floating in the air evoke the warmth of childhood attics.

Finish : Long, accomplished. At the start of the finish, cocoa powder showers the palate, as new fruits are added to the flavour palette (lemon, apricot, peach, nectarine, melon). With stunning youth and freshness, the end of the palate is characterized by notes of fresh fig and red fruit (raspberry, strawberry). The balsamic retro-nasal olfaction and empty glass reveal thuja, pine resin and cedar fragrances.
