Amrut Fusion Indian Single Malt Whisky

I had the good fortune to attend an Amrut tasting event tonight with one of the brand ambassadors at the Seven Grand whiskey bar in downtown Austin. I got to try five different expressions from Amrut over the course of the evening, plus some delightful punch made with their peated single malt. This one ranked #1 of the evening for me, if for nothing else that I can afford it and it's available in my area. The peat is really thoughtfully blended into this pour, and doesn't overpower the Indian malted barley, and the finish just goes on forever. It almost reminds me of High West Campfire. I'm adding this one to my collection for sure. I can see why Jim Murray liked it so much when it first came out.

Spices, slight smoke, smooth, slightly sweet and medium full. Aftertaste lingers. Good whiskey.

Very complex, and full bodied. Lots of flavors of dried fruits and a prolonged but not overpowering finish of peat and vanilla

Sweet, peaty, full body, has a bourbon like edge!
