Kavalan Concertmaster Port Cask Finish single malt whisky is first matured in specially selected American oak casks and then finished in port barriques. The ageing in barriques mellows the flavours and adds indefinable smoothness to the whisky. It is rich bodied with natural sweetness and complexity. Nose: Red grapes and clove, followed by a good whack of vanilla. A little bit of tobacco leaf and cookie dough. Palate: Brown sugar mixed with ground cinnamon and white pepper, doused in good Port. A core of white oak warmth. Finish: Raisins, prunes, strawberry jam and another pinch of tobacco.
