About This Whiskey

Amrut 100 Peated is a distinctive Indian single malt whisky that showcases Amrut Distilleries' innovative approach to whisky production. Bottled at 57.1% ABV, this expression is crafted using 100% peated barley, imparting a robust smoky character to the whisky. The maturation process involves initial aging in ex-bourbon casks, followed by a transfer to handcrafted 100-liter virgin oak barrels. This unique maturation method accelerates the aging process and enhances the whisky's aromatic profile.

Tasting Notes

NOSE: The aroma is rich and inviting, featuring notes of smoked barley, kippers with salted butter, and a peppered bite.
TASTE: The delivery is youthful, then suddenly intensely malty, followed by a healthy dose of drier oaks.
FINISH: The finish is sublime for its sheer delicacy and elegance, with the peat no more than oozing, accompanied by cups galore of sugarless medium roast, and finally, as a bourbony trail appears, soft licorice and molasses.
