Amrut Peated Cask Strength

Country: India

Region:

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 62.78%

Score: 85 Points

There isn’t any peat in India, so the peated barley for this expression was imported from Scotland. The nose has oak and vanilla notes with a light peatiness and hints of dried flowers and cinnamon. The taste has a good balance of peat, wood, cinnamon, and vanilla. Very smooth, with the initial taste fading to let the peat linger on the finish. (2008)
