King Car chose Kavalan to be the center of production for Taiwanese whisky in part because Lee Tien-tsai hails from Yilan and in part because the excellent waters from the Central and Xueshan ranges, the mountain breezes, and the damp Pacific air impart a wonderful character to the whisky.
噶瑪蘭是台灣威士忌的產地，選在這裡釀造威士忌，除了宜蘭是金車董事長李添財的故鄉外，來自中央山脈、雪山山脈的好水與山風，加上太平洋豐沛的水氣，孕育了「KA VA LAN」獨特的風味。
