Fino, Spanish for 'Fine', is the driest and most pale of all varieties of traditional sherry wine. Traditional Fino wine is usually non-sweet and is best consumed shortly after the bottle is opened in order to avoid losing its flavour. Kavalan's Fino, however, matured in the finest Fino Sherry butts that were used for the wine making, however, provides mild sweetness that excites the palate. Every cask is specially selected by the master blender for its distinct character and fine distillery quality. Each bottle is individually hand bottled and labeled for your unique sampling pleasure.
Tasting Notes:
Color: Dark gold amber
Nose: The rich aroma of sherry, with its creamy toffee and rich fudge qualities, and the slightest hint of chocolate blends with the fruity character of the spirit. The fruitiness is a complex, multi-layered blend of mango and over-ripe citrus fruit flavors that ends with a touch of green apples.
Palate: Natural sweetness on the tongue is accentuated with a gentle fudge flavour. The complex fruity flavours are layered with dry smoked wood aromas. This special anniversary edition of Solist cask strength whisky has a long finish and natural sweetness giving way to a pleasant mouth-drying sensation that leaves the connoisseur ready for the next sip!
