Kavalan LÁN is a tribute to Yilan, the birthplace of Kavalan Distillery. Vanilla from bourbon barrels meets the nutty, floral aromas of Port casks, and Kavalan's S.T.R. technique adds a caramelised, fruity sweetness. It is bottled at 43% ABV. The orchid on the label gives the whisky its name.

Why Choose Kavalan LÁN?

At 43%, LÁN carries a little more weight than the core range, and its floral character is distinct within the Kavalan line-up.

Kavalan suggests chocolate, fruit, smoked meats and desserts.

What Makes Kavalan Distillery Unique?

Kavalan Distillery is in Yilan, in north-eastern Taiwan. Its whiskies mature in a humid climate, which shapes how the spirit and the cask interact and contributes to the range's tropical fruit character. The distillery has also developed its own S.T.R. technique (shave, toast, rechar) to refresh wine casks, and its single malts have earned consistent recognition at international competitions.
