Frequently asked
Why is Kavalan whisky so different from Scotch?
Taiwan's subtropical climate means Kavalan whisky matures 3-5× faster than Scotch — a 3-year Kavalan can have the character depth of a 10-15 year Scotch. Also delivers distinctive tropical fruit notes from the warm maturation.
Distillery Select No. 1 vs No. 2 — what's the difference?
No. 1 is fruit-forward and gently oaked — the more accessible sibling. No. 2 leans richer and more expressive, with deeper cask influence. Both are distillery exclusives at the same accessible pricing.
How should I serve it?
Neat in a tulip glass at room temperature, or with a few drops of water to open the aromatics. Excellent as a Taiwanese highball with sparkling water.
