Amrut is one of the pioneers of high-quality single malt whisky outside Scotland and has gained international recognition for its distinctive style. This Peated Indian Single Malt is a permanent fixture in the range and perfectly illustrates how peat and tropical maturation complement each other.
Distilled from select peated barley and matured in India's warm climate, which allows for a faster and more intense interaction between wood and spirit. The result is a whisky with a distinct smokiness, yet with added depth and ripe fruit rarely found in classic peated malts.
