Kavalan Distillery Debuts a New Spirit in Its 'Time Exploration'
Kavalan Distillery has introduced its first age-statement whisky — the Kavalan 15 Years Old Single Malt Whisky — as part of its 'Time Exploration' series. This limited-edition release will be available in only 30,000 bottles globally. The launch is intended to celebrate nearly two decades of whisky-making excellence since the distillery produced Taiwan’s first new make spirit in 2006.
The Kavalan 15 Years Old Single Malt Whisky is matured in a combination of ex-Bourbon, Oloroso Sherry, Ruby Port, and Puncheon casks. The 2025 age-statement whisky is bottled at 43% ABV and is designed to highlight the depth and complexity achieved through years of careful aging and cask selection.
The packaging and presentation further enhance its appeal. The design features natural wood grain textures and gold-foiled accents. Additionally, the story behind the whisky — celebrating Kavalan’s journey and Taiwan’s emergence as a respected whisky-producing region — adds a layer of cultural and historical significance that resonates with consumers interested in the heritage and craftsmanship of spirits.
