Kavalan Podium
So this is an unusual one. Unlike the usual suspects, the Podium is matured in virgin American oak casks as well as a few of the distillery’s own refills. This is new territory for them. Let’s see how it goes.

Nose: Tropical fruit. Coconut, pear, mango, green mango, anise, chocolate, malt, pepper, and cinnamon.

Palate: Oily, velvety mouthfeel. White pepper, tobacco, leather, tropical fruit, anise.

Finish: Barbecue sauce, pepper, cherry, dried mango, oak, leather, cinnamon, mustard, and honey. It's a long, fruity, spicy finish with good complexity.

Thoughts: I didn’t like this at first, but it’s grown on me. It’s not quite on par with their Solist releases, but that’s asking for a lot. It’s always fun to see the effects of virgin oak casks. As expected, some nice woody, spicy, drying notes pop up. But they compliment Kavalan’s signature tropical fruit profile really well. An interesting departure for them, and quite good!

嗅覺:
*帶有完美平衡的熱帶果香.
*椰子,梨子,熬果,鳳梨,八角,巧克力,大麥,胡椒,肉桂.
味覺:
*有油一樣的口感.
*白胡椒,菸草,皮革,八角,熱帶水果.
後味:
* 後味長帶有果香,結束帶有辛香料的味道.
*BBQ醬, 胡椒,櫻桃,芒果乾,橡木,皮革,肉桂,芥末,蜂蜜.

評語:
*一剛開始我並不是很喜歡,但是現在越來越喜歡了.
這一款是VIRGIN OAK CASK,代表這個酒桶完全沒有釀過其它的酒,由於這樣,
釀出來的酒帶有辛香料還有乾味,木香.而且辛香料和木香與KAVALAN的熱帶果香很搭,是一款很有趣的酒.
