The Kavalan SOLIST Pedro Ximénez Cask embodies the intense cask character and concentrated aromas for which the Kavalan Distillery is renowned worldwide. This limited-edition single-cask release is matured in selected Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, one of the few sherries produced exclusively from the Pedro Ximénez (PX) grape variety. PX is a classic dessert wine, known for its very dark colour and its sweet, aromatic depth of caramel, dried fruit, chocolate and nuts. This maturation process allows the whisky to develop its multi-layered, soft and sweet character, which fits seamlessly into the signature style of the Kavalan Solist range. This bottling is produced as a single cask and bottled at natural cask strength of 58.6 per cent by volume, unchill-filtered and without colouring.


Taiwan’s tropical climate intensifies the cask maturation and ensures that the typical PX aromas permeate the whisky particularly deeply. The result is a PX Sherry single malt that impresses with both its aromatic richness and its smooth texture. The dark sweetness of the PX casks blends with the creamy, elegant Kavalan notes to create a harmonious whole. Presented in a high-quality wooden box, this whisky is one of the most characterful and sought-after bottlings in the Solist series.

Tasting Note

Colour: Dark honey-gold.

Nose: Rosemary and a hint of lemongrass, sweet citrus notes, toffee and subtle oak tones.

Palate: Very fruity and warm, classic PX notes combined with Kavalan’s velvety texture; raisins and honey linger on the finish.

Finish: Long-lasting, smooth, sweet and fruity with a warm depth.

This Kavalan Solist Pedro Ximénez Cask pairs superbly with rich desserts such as chocolate tart, date and walnut cake or creamy vanilla custard, as its sweet depth complements these flavours wonderfully. It also harmonises beautifully with strong cheeses such as Blue Stilton or mature Gouda, whose salty flavour provides an exciting contrast to the PX’s sweetness. The whisky reveals its full potential when paired with biscuits such as Florentines, almond brittle or honey biscuits. When enjoyed neat, its aromatic complexity comes through particularly intensely, making it ideal for quiet, contemplative moments of enjoyment after a hearty dinner.
