About Kavalan Distillery

These conditions combine to create Kavalan's signature creaminess. Taking Yilan County's old name, our distillery is backed by about 40 years of beverage-making under parent company, King Car Group. We have collected more than 600 gold awards or higher from the industry's most competitive contests. Visit www.kavalanwhisky.com
