FUSION SINGLE MALT WHISKY India Whisky |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
AMRUT |
I discovered Amrut about a decade ago and was amazed. This most recent Fusion edition with 50% alcohol is their most popular single malt. It's a unique blend of imported peated Scottish barley and unpeated locally grown Indian barley. The results are terrific. It has an ambering gold colour and an intense, complex, honeyed, gently peaty nose with spicy, smoky, citrusy notes. Dry, medium-full bodied, harmonious, well structured, intense,honeyed, gently smoke-tinged, lifted. malty flavours that go on and on followed up by a delicious, lingering, faintly floral, caramel-pepper now finish. I love it neat at room temperature in my ISO glass - no ice/ no water. The batch at the LCBO has lot number B.Np. 118 - May2022 on the back label. It's hard to find - only 590 bottles in 70 stores but well worth the effort. |
