Amrut, Bagheera

46% ABV 500ml

FROM THE LAND OF THE GREAT HIMALAYAS

Sherried Single Malt Indian Whisky

Made from a combination of 99% unpeated malted barley and 1% peated malted barley and aged in ex-bourbon casks before being finished in the finest sherry casks.

TASTING NOTES

Nose: Salted caramel in tandem with dark chocolate. There is an array of fruity notes presumably dried fruits with underlying oak tone. There is a hint of sandalwood and becomes floral with time.

Taste: A fruity affair complemented by floral tones and the experience is very oily too. The middle ground is creamy and the sandalwood and wood phenols show their face but completely controlled by an underlying peat note.

Finish: Sweet and dry peat finish.

About the Distillery

Amrut are the pioneers of Indian single malt whisky being the first to be made in India. Amrut or amrita is a Sanskrit word which can be translated as "nectar of the gods", "nectar of life", or "drink of the gods". The distillery sources its barley from the Himalayas and ages the whisky at an altitude of over 3,000 feet above sea level in Bangalore. In this climate, the angels take way more than their share as up to 15% ABV of the whisky is lost per year. The resulting spirit has netted Amrut with hundreds of awards around the globe.

"Great quality is not a choice, 
It is the inevitable result of the environment we create."
