Amrut Distilleries is a family-owned company that was founded in 1948. However, they only began producing single malt whisky in 2004, making them one of India’s first single malt whisky producers. Nose: The oak is really over powering on the nose. It has more of an acetone touch to it, but on the other hand there is also a soured note. A sweetness seems similar to butterscotch or hard caramel candy. With the rising demand for Amrut whiskies in Kerala, consumers need to be wary of fake or counterfeit bottles. Here are some tips for buying original Amrut whisky: Amrut releases a limited edition of the Two Continents variant, usually every two or three years. The Second Edition used second-fill Bourbon casks and was bottled at 50% abv, while the First Edition was matured in ex-grain casks and bottled 46% abv.

Amrut Greedy Angels was a limited edition 50% abv, 8-year-old single malt whisky released in April 2013. Amrut Distilleries claims that it is the oldest Indian whisky ever produced. Its name comes from the term angels' share, the portion of whisky lost during maturation. The eight-year maturation in Bangalore resulted in a high evaporative loss of 12% per annum, or a total loss of 274 litres of spirit over eight years, from the two Bourbon casks the distillery had used. [35] When filled in 2004, the casks held approximately 360 litres of spirit. [36] Only 144 bottles or 86 litres of whisky were released worldwide. [35] Greedy Angels was dedicated to celebrate the 60th birthday of Amrut Distilleries chairman and MD, Neelakanta Jagdale.

Here’s a detailed overview of each expression and its pricing: Amrut Indian Single Malt Final Thoughts: The Amrut Single Malt Cask Strength is much better than the regular Amrut Single Malt. Even though it is cask strength, it isn’t as rough as it is cut down at 46% ABV. Palate: The mouthfeel is soft, but at the same time, it comes off a bit astringent. It is faintly sweet with some cocoa like a Heath bar. The strong flavors are oak and leather, but they do not meld well together.In 1982, Jagdale had decided to create a premium whisky from barley[9] blended with malt, while most distillers in India were manufacturing whisky using molasses. Amrut Distilleries began using locally grown barley, in addition to molasses and launched Prestige Blended Malt Whisky in the Canteen Stores Department in 1986. The first batch of single malt whisky was ready within 18 months. Because India had no habit of consuming single malt at the time, the company did not consider bottling it as a single malt. Instead, the whisky was blended with alcohol distilled from sugarcane to produce Maqintosh Premium Whisky. Initially, Palate: The mouthfeel is velvety soft. It’s fruity and spicy. It reminds me of a marzipan treat. I don’t really get peat from the profile, but I do get a slight amount of ash. Leather comes around and leads into the dry oak finish.

I am uncertain of the ratio of the unpeated Indian barley and the peated Scottish barley, but it just doesn’t seem to sync.

Final Thoughts: It’s on par with the regular Amrut Peated Single Malt, but obviously gives a little more in flavor. It really just depends on how bold you want to go. I say skip the unpeated Amrut single malts and just dive into any of their peated stuff. It’s not heavily peated and a novice to peated whiskies could handle this.
