The peated versions of the single malt produced by the Amrut distillery wonderfully accommodate ageing in a port cask. Many of those bottled by La Maison du Whisky are evidence of this. The third instalment in our 2021 Creation Catalogue dedicatedto the Bangalore distillery, this version gets immediately to the point, imposing its uncompromising and yet marvellously nuanced style. It finds its unity of tone thanks to a subtle combination of incessant comings and goings between peaty, fruity,animal, exotic, medicinal, spicy and ashy sequences.
Profile: the rich first nose wavers between an elegant peat and red and black fruits (raspberry, blackberry). Allowed to breathe, peat and smoke take the upper hand. Next, notes of camphor, turmeric and lime accompany a thick smoke. The sober attack is particularly exotic (pineapple) and intensely peaty and smoky. The mineral end of the palate recalls a chimney fire. The generous finish is like a vanilla flan. Little by little, the animalcharacter of the flavour palette becomes increasingly marked. On the retro-nasal olfaction, barley grains gush across the palate.
