Tastes

Dry, too spicy and a little simple. Yes, the review is right, you can taste all of these notes... but they come out so weakly in a hollow way, I was upset since I was so eager to try another Teeling after falling head-over-heels in love with Teeling Small Batch Rum Cask.

This whisky is a real treat: chocolate-mint notes, nuts, herbs, luxuriant creaminess, a beautiful oily texture that Amrut lacks, an elegant marriage of peat and spice and a subtle drop of dryness at the end. Not to mention a few fruity notes throughout (although I can't quite pin them down... cherry, maybe kiwi too?). This whisky is similar to Islay, but the peat style is different, more perfumed like Japanese peat and fruitier like French peat. The oily texture echos the fast aging, evoking the texture of Kavalan or P&M Corsican whisky. But otherwise, this website's review is pretty accurate.

It's OK, it's interesting, it's different, but it's not amazing, the fruity flavours, the overly rich sweetness and the muddy, stale peat just don't mix that well for me. Yes, to be fair, the finish is pretty good, there are some nice roasted notes, but I prefer Paul John Edited.

Mildly sweet... then dry and finishing with a horrible alcohol burn... The flavour was also cruelly simple. Maybe it's not my style... maybe it's just a really bad whisky. If you want Indian, go for Paul John Edited and at the very least, Amrut Fusion is a better Amrut whisky.

The worst whisky I have ever tried.

Caramel, smooth and spicy! I can't find the words... It's just so tasty and smooth, a real treat!

Very subly, very sweet, soft and elegant like white wine, but oily and full with a sweet madeira touch. Many don't like this whisky, but I love it.

I had a bad experience with the Red Label, but the cheap price and the recommendation of this site pushed me to take a leap. And it was worth it, the mix of Caol Ila, Talisker and a bewildering array of other single malts works. And the grain and peat are matched perfectly.

A tasty treat! An amazing marriage of different Scottish styles (Lowland, Highland, coastal) and different oaks (bourbon and French oak). Sweetness, caramel, popcorn, medicinal notes, cream, spice, apple, pear, pomegranate and berries! Simply delightful.

Being from Brittany, this buckwheat whisky makes me nostalgic. I love the sweet oiliness, the coppery blood like twang, the distinctive, strong, earthy flavour of Breton oak, it is truly one of a kind.
