Year of the Horse Lunar New Year Collector’s Edition — Taiwanese Single Malt Whisky
Kavalan’s Lunar New Year release honours the Year of the Horse, a symbol of ambition, forward movement, and success in the year ahead. The elegant “Golden Steed & Peonies” presentation makes this a meaningful gift as much as a remarkable whisky.
Produced in Yilan, Taiwan, this single malt is matured in three distinct sherry casks: Oloroso, Pedro Ximénez, and Moscatel. Taiwan’s warm, humid climate accelerates interaction between spirit and wood, allowing the whisky to develop depth and complexity in far less time than traditional cool-climate maturation.
The result is a rich and velvety profile. Aromas of dried figs, dates, and orange peel open into cocoa, espresso, and dark caramel. The palate is rounded and smooth, carrying raisin, chocolate, baking spice, and gentle tropical fruit before a warm, lingering finish.
This is an excellent choice for those who enjoy fortified wines, Amarone, or dark-fruited dessert profiles, and a welcoming entry point for wine lovers exploring whisky.
Beautifully presented and highly giftable, the Year of the Horse collector gift pack is ideal for celebrations, milestone moments, or simply marking the start of a new year with intention.
