Show Notes:

The Whiskey - Amrut Indian Single Malt Whisky

• 46% ABV (92 Proof)
• Price: $77.16  ($69.99 plus $7.17 tax)
• 100% malted barley
• Aged in New American Oak and ex-bourbon barrels for at least 4 years

Tasting notes (courtesy of the website)

• Appearance / Color: Golden yellow
• Nose / Aroma / Smell: liquorice-bourbon notes (“near perfect bitter-sweet balance); burnt honeycomb and toffee
• Flavor / Taste / Palate: richness and sheen to the enormous barely-oak sweetness; big bourbon taste with notes of liquorice and molasses sugar and barley
• Finish: long, wonderfully layered oak offering variations of a sweet dry theme; a touch silky with some cream toffee at the death

“Most of the 189 million cases of Whisky produced in India isn’t what we would consider Whisky. Rather than being made from malted grains, it is made from molasses and is thick and very sweet. In fact, Whisky accounts for nearly 60% of the Indian-made foreign liquor market.”
