Kavalan King Car 40 th Anniversary Single Malt, 56.3%

Price: 521 Issue: Fall 2020 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Taiwanese Whisky

This stirred a primeval urge in me for a good steak: bramble, blueberry, ripe Victoriaplum, Morello cherry, exotic spices, and a hot and heavy perfumed scent from theselect wine cask maturation. Sweet berry fruit—though mouth drawing—and adelicious chocolate note, then it lashes the tongue with an intense peppery spice thatmade me double-check the ABV, so dilute liberally. Savory finish with charredoak. NTD15,000
