Amrut Indian Single Malt Whiskey ( 2019 )

Amrut Indian Single Malt Whiskey

Amrut is the pioneer of the modern Indian single malt, and this Indian Single Malt Whisky is its pure foundation. Distilled and bottled by Amrut Distilleries in Bangalore, this whisky matures in classic oak casks under the warm Indian climate, resulting in accelerated and intense maturation.

The nose opens elegantly with malt, honey, light vanilla, and a touch of tropical fruit . The palate is round and approachable, with sweet malt, soft spices, oak, and a subtle spiciness , followed by a warm, balanced finish. Bottled at 46% ABV, it's free from frills, yet has a clear structure and personality.

This isn't a hyped bottle or a speculative investment, but an ethically crafted single malt with international recognition (Whiskybase score ±82/100). Ideal for those looking to broaden their horizons beyond Scotland and curious about what India has to offer in terms of whisky.

An excellent introduction to the world of Amrut — reliable, characterful, and surprisingly well-balanced.
