Vinho Barrique Cask Strength series was awarded the title of World’s Best Single Malt Whisky in 2015. Fully matured in used American Oak wine barrels, it offers rich and fruity aromas with layers of vanilla, caramel, tropical fruits, and subtle hints of spice and oak. The influence of the wine cask adds a smooth and complex texture with a gentle sweetness. 

Tasting Notes from Distillery: Color: Deep autumn gold. Nose: A rich fusion of vanilla and caramelized sugars. Ripe melon and mango together with kiwi and a delicate blend of citrus fruits burst. Palate: The taste ends with clean and complex flavours embodying all that is best in the finest malt whiskies and a long aftertaste.

Kavalan Solist Vinho is aged in the finest slow grown white oak which is air seasoned for two years. After soaking with some of the world's best wines the casks are hand crafted with a specially developed toasting and charring process in the distillery's own cooperage to bring out the flavours that characterise this fine whisky. Kavalan Solist Vinho is a perfect example of technology and art blended together in perfect harmony.
