Amrut Indian Single Malt Whisky
Amrut Whisky
Indian whiskies are fruity and malty. They are often examples of youthful exuberance, enjoyable and of a defined style in their own right. Plenty of tropical fruit and toffee. India’s climate proffers a speedy maturation.
The first traditional single malt distillery was Amrut, established in 1948 in Bangalore. The recent insurgence of single malt Indian whisky has been produced to the Scottish Whisky Association’s strict regulations.
‘Engineered in Germany, made in India’ is how Indian Scotch Whisky would define itself. It utilizes the techniques of making Scotch in Scotland and makes them in India.
Fusion Single Malt Whisky
Amrut Fusion gets its name from the fact that it uses two barleys: Indian and Scottish - with the latter being peated for good measure.
