Boasting complex notes that complement one another, the Kavalan Concertmaster Sherry Finish hosts notes of dark dry fruits with a nuttiness that lends to its clean and full-bodied profile. Taiwan’s best-kept secret since 2005, the Kavalan Distillery have used their newly opened Kavalan Whisky Bar in Taipei to try out the ‘Long Story Short’ Bond-inspired cocktail, the iconic Vesper Martini.
