Kavalan, ISC 및 IWSC에서 세 개의 트로피 수상

(타이베이 2021년 7월 20일 PRNewswire=연합뉴스) Kavalan이 International Spirits Challenge (ISC)에서 2년 연속으로 World Whisky Producer of the Year Trophy를 수상했다.

이로써 대만 최고의 증류주 제조업체 Kavalan은 이번 시즌에 2021 ISC와 International Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC)에서 총 세 개의 트로피를 수상했다.

Kavalan의 올해 수상 내역은 다음과 같다.

• ISC World Whisky Producer of the Year Trophy
• ISC Spirit Tourism Awards Distillery Visitor Centre Trophy
• IWSC Worldwide Whiskey Trophy

Kavalan은 2021년 International Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC) 1라운드에서 Kavalan Podium Single Malt Whisky로 9번째 Worldwide Whiskey Trophy를 수상하면서 강세를 펼쳤다. Kavalan은 올해 대회에서 IWSC 심사위원단이 수여하는 단 8개의 Gold Outstanding 메달 중 7개나 거머쥐었다.

버진 아메리칸 오크 통과 리필 통을 혼합해 숙성시킨 Podium은 심사위원단으로부터 호평을 받았다.

"고양된 오크 노트가 볶은 커피콩, 인동 및 장미 향과 더불어 전해진다. 스파이시하고 무거운 맛이 열리며, 다양한 숲 과일 맛이 전개된다. 밝고 충만한 맛은 달콤한 포리지와 육두구로 마무리된다. 전문적으로 균형 잡힌 술이다."

ISC Spirits Tourism Awards는 전 세계 증류주 제조사의 혁신과 우수성을 인정하는 상이다. Kavalan은 여기서 Distillery Visitor Centre Trophy를 수상했다.

심사위원 피드백:

• 크고 현대적인 방문객 센터. 방문객은 Kavalan에 좋은 피드백을 제공하고, 이 센터는 매우 잘 조직돼 있다. 한편, 줄줄이 배치된 시음 벤치는 규모가 매우 크며, 개인적이라기보다는 상업적이다.
• 입구가 눈에 띈다. 전형적인 박물관이나 방문객센터 입구와는 차이가 있다. Kavalan은 무료 시음 공간, 예술 설치물, 위스키 아이스크림 밴, 바, 카페 등을 선보인다. 이곳에서는 지역의 테루아르와 Kavalan의 스토리를 들려준다. 방문객 수는 매우 많다. 이는 Kavalan의 강력한 제품 라인을 확인할 수 있는 증거다. 매우 훌륭하다.
• 방문객센터는 투어가 끝난 후에 이어지는 단순한 활동이 아니다. 가든 바, 가든 홀, 시음 및 DIY 혼합실, 카페 등을 갖추고 있어, 그 자체로 큰 관심을 끈다.

Kavalan CEO Lee는 팀에 감사를 전하고, 앞으로도 훌륭한 업무를 이어가 달라고 요청했다. Lee 대표는 "전 세계 팬과 비평가들에게 계속해서 양질의 제품을 제공하고자 한다"라고 언급했다.

Kavalan Distillery 소개

이란(Yilan) 마을에 있는 Kavalan Distillery는 2005년부터 대만에서 싱글 몰트 위스키 제조법을 개척해왔다. 높은 습도와 온도에서 숙성되는 Kavalan 위스키는 설산의 해빙수로 만들며, 바닷바람과 산바람으로 더욱 향상된다. 이 모든 요소가 합쳐져 Kavalan만의 고유한 부드러운 위스키가 탄생한다. 이란(Yilan) 마을의 옛 이름을 브랜드명으로 선택한 Kavalan 증류주 제조소는 모회사 King Car Group이 약 40년간 구축한 음료 제조 경험에 기반을 둔다. Kavalan은 업계에서 가장 경쟁이 치열한 여러 대회에서 550개 이상의 금상 또는 더 높은 상을 받았다. 추가 정보는 www.kavalanwhisky.com을 참조한다.
