Product Details
OMAR Single Malt Whisky is produced at the Nantou Distillery, under the Taiwan Tobacco and Liquor Corporation (TTL). The distillery leverages Taiwan's unique hot and humid climate, accelerating the interaction between the spirit and the oak casks, allowing the whisky to develop profound flavors typically associated with much older expressions in a shorter time. This Sherry Cask expression is a proud staple of their core range, bottled at Non-Chill Filtered (NCF) to retain its rich texture and natural color.

The Nantou Distillery is situated in Central Taiwan, benefiting from excellent water sources and distinct seasonal changes. OMAR, which means 'Amber' in Gaelic, aptly describes the captivating amber hue of this matured whisky. Due to Taiwan's hot climate, the annual 'Angel's Share' evaporation rate is significantly higher than in Scotland. However, this rapid maturation process imbues OMAR with a distinctive 'Southern Island flavor profile'.
Since its launch, this Sherry Cask whisky has garnered numerous accolades at major international competitions like the ISC, WWA, and IWSC, successfully challenging the traditional notion that 'whisky must originate from Scotland'. Its rich dried fruit aroma and full body make it an excellent pairing for dark chocolate, nuts, or savory Chinese braised dishes. Whether chosen as a festive gift or for personal collection, OMAR Sherry Cask promises a surprisingly delightful tasting experience.
