About Amrut Peated Indian Single Malt Whisky
Amrut Peated Indian Single Malt Whisky is a pioneering spirit from Amrut Distilleries in Bangalore, India, crafted with peated Scottish barley (around 23-28 ppm phenols) and matured in American oak casks, often at cask strength like 62.8% ABV, though standard expressions sit at 46% ABV. What makes it special is its unique maturation in India's hot climate, accelerating aging to deliver bold peat smoke intertwined with tropical fruit sweetness, earthy depth, and spice—distinct from traditional Islay Scotches. Ideal for peat enthusiasts seeking affordable innovation beyond Scotland, it offers complexity at $69.99 for 750ml via Glass Revolution Imports. In the single malt category, it punches above its weight, rivaling pricier peated Scots with vibrant smoke, vanilla, and citrus, earning accolades like World Whisky Awards nods for its crisp, zesty profile.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
Subtle smoldering coal and dry peat evoke an old leather armchair with hints of citrus and dried fruit. Caramel, vanilla, nutmeg, and faint cigar ash add layers of sweetness and earthiness. Light fruity notes like apricot emerge alongside smoky undertones.
👅 Palate
An explosion of spice, pepper, and chili meets molassed sugar and smoky peat, balanced by lemon sherbet sweetness and fruity depth. Cigar wrapper-like peat evolves into caramel, banana, and herbal notes with a tingly, full-bodied mouthfeel. Water reveals coffee beans, black liquorice, and smoky bacon.
✨ Finish
Lingering sweetness of toffee, vanilla, and bonfire smoke persists with barley and flamed citrus zest. A long, rich trail of peat, mild spice, and earthiness fades luxuriously.
