Description

In relative terms Kavalan is a veritable newcomer to the whisky game, but to taste Concertmaster you would never believe they have only been around since 2005. Originally matured in American oak casks, the malt was then transferred to casks that once held Ruby, Vintage and Tawny Port to give it its distinctive flavour.

Nose
Aromatic with notes of red grapes, plum, dark berries, honey, vanilla, coconut, and candy floss, with subtle hints of clove, cocoa, and oak spice.
Palate
Smooth and medium-bodied, offering red fruit compote, dried fruit, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla custard, and gentle citrus peel, with a soft touch of port wine tannin and malted cereal.
Finish
Warm and lingering with red fruit sweetness, mild spice, oak tannins, and a clean, gently drying cocoa note.
