Kavalan Launches Limited Edition Dry Peated Whisky Highball in Japan


 Kavalan is ushering in the festive season with its first-ever Ready-to-Drink (RTD) Dry Peated Whisky Highball, a limited-edition release crafted exclusively for Japan and available only at Lawson stores nationwide.

Marrying smoky sophistication with crisp refreshment, it brings Kavalan’s signature elegance into Japan’s beloved highball culture.

Using its award-winning Peated Whisky, crowned “Best of the Best” Single Malt Whisky at the 2024 Tokyo Whisky & Spirits Competition (TWSC), Kavalan has created a drink that balances peaty depth with tropical vibrancy.

King Car Group Chairman and Kavalan CEO Mr. Yu-Ting Lee said the new release captures the festive spirit in every sip.


“Whether enjoyed at an izakaya or an outdoor gathering, this limited-edition highball celebrates Japan’s highball tradition while appealing to whisky and cocktail lovers worldwide,” he said.

“We’ve used our premium 50–59.9% ABV peated whisky as the base to achieve a perfect harmony of smokiness and fruit-forward notes.”

The Kavalan Bar Cocktail Dry Peated Whisky Highball (320ml, 7% ABV) combines peated whisky with crisp soda water, delivering a refreshing, layered experience with zero added sugar.

It will be available nationwide at Lawson stores from mid-December, with a suggested retail price of JPY 528 (tax included).

Embodying the theme “smoky elegance meets refreshing balance,” the design features a deep purple and champagne gold palette, symbolising the fusion of rich smokiness and tropical brightness while reflecting Kavalan’s refined, modern Taiwanese style.
