Amrut Single Malt

Amrut! India's first attempt at a quality, malted barley based whisky. And at long last a sub-continental whisky that needs to be taken seriously.
Their barley is sourced from the north Indian states of
Punjab and Rajasthan. The water is brought by lorry from a well 15 miles outside Bangalore’s industrial pollution. The whisky is then matured in American oak barrels at the company’s plant in Bangalore, situated 3,000ft above sea level to produce a whisky that is richly oaked, high;y aromatic but displays notes of fruit and chocolate, laced with spices.

Blackadder Single Cask Amrut Peat Indian Malt

Now here's a turn up for the books. The first independent bottling of India’s famous Amrut single malt whisky!! And it's peated! Amrut whiskies are highly aromatic, very fruity, peaty, clean and impressive and this bottling does not disappoint. There's plenty of peat reek, alcohol attack that adds intensity to a well textured palate. A must try from the masters of Bangalore whiksy.
Robin's notes:
Nose: Deep warm smoky peat with brown sugar and very malty.
Taste: Lots of glycerine at first. Very malty with dry smoky peats, marzipan and lots of dark chocolate.
Finish: Long and warm with smoky chocolate peat left behind on the tail.
Notes: If you love peated whisky this is definitely one for you. This Amrut was peated at 24ppm.

Now if you thought that Robin Tucek's privately bottled peated Amrut was rather whacky, well have a look at this one! A Blackadder bottling of Amrut Bangalore single malt whisky THAT has spent 6 months in a rum cask that was stored in Scotland. And at 62.2% Alc it's very expressive. (Pic indicative only).
Robin's Notes:
Nose: Cane sugar, molasses and lots of marzipan.
Taste: Rich, honeyed and malty with lots of oranges, a hint of melon, some butterscotch and notes of rum.
Finish: Quite dry, with a lot of vanilla tannins, yet complex and satisfying and a warm spicy finish with tobacco notes on the tail.

The claim is that this is the oldest Irish single grain ever released, funny that, last year we bought in Milroy's Cooley which is a 16yo!! BUT, but, but, this is still a brialliant whiskey. This 15yo comes from the Cooley distillery, it's soft, sweet and delicious with hints vanilla, honey and oak and o nly 5000 bottles have been filled. Jim Murray gives it 90pts and describes it as "Beautiful".
