Good to see this one back. There's only ever been a handful of batches of this expression, so it's extra special to see the prodigal child return.
Amrut Two Continents starts its life in India and, after a period of initial maturation in those warm climes, the casks are shipped to an undisclosed European location for the last little bit of 'growing up'. An interesting concept (something that Scotch whisky could never do), and always well-executed. This is Batch No 4.
Natural colour, non-chill filtered, and bottled at 46% abv.
700 mlProducer Tasting Note
Nose: Suet pudding, oils and banana milkshake
Taste: Beautiful delivery. A stunning meeting of juicy barley, soft fruits and delicate yet persistent spices; a light oiliness helps the more complex notes glide to all parts of the palate and some muscovado sugars make light of any oaky encroachment; the middle ground heads towards chocolate milkshake
Finish: Long with the slowest build up of oaks on record. The spices continue to flit and fizz and finally vanilla takes hold. A Vanilla infused finish
