Reviewed October 5, 2020My first whisky from India, I am impressed with this one. The peat has been imported from Scotland and the barley is an Indian variety, the combination is a quite softly peated whisky with very interesting sweet characters. Tropical fruits, anise and spice with this medium-low peat makes for a nice sip! -

Reviewed July 8, 2020 (edited October 18, 2022)Pleasant peat, well integrated. Not that bold but a nice touch of smokiness which comes in first, followed by some fruits and a good touch of spicyness in the finish. An interesting find -

Reviewed June 9, 2020 (edited February 26, 2021)Nice sweet & savory nose with stone fruits, kumquat skins, spices and a hint of peat and smoke. Silky on the palate with sweet stone fruits, spices and peat. The finish is spicy and medium length with some of the sweet & savory notes. Not a bad choice at all for first foray into Indian whisky. -

Reviewed April 9, 2020 (edited June 20, 2024)Indian WHisky...When i first started this "hobbie" i would have never thought i will be drinking Indian Whisky, And this, is my second one. (The other was amrut) Bottled at 46%abv; pale straw color. I happened to meet the brand ambassador of Paul John indian whisky in whisky live and he was the typical Hindu guy just like great tiger from NES (that is a "punchout" videogame reference, and if you didn't knew it, your childhood was not as good as mine). On the nose is incredible. The "BOLD" Expression is the heavily peated one. So Peat, orange, honey, and some spice... wait... is that...CURRY? (Typical Indian Food). Amazing. On the palate it gets a little more "normal" with a very spicy mouth bomb, very hot and oaky, the term "bold" fits perfectly. The finish is medium and full of spices, wasabi and pepper, but much more controled. Overall i give this very interesting dram an 88 over 100 and if you find it, taste it. It is an experience. -

Reviewed April 2, 2020 (edited January 30, 2021)This is my “daily sipper nominee of the Paul John core lineup. Aroma reminds me of Laphroaig but lighter and sweeter with more grilled orchard fruit; Palate tips towards chestnut with the roasted notes with bits of copper arriving as it opens; Finish hits all the right notes as it slowly fades out. -

Reviewed February 24, 2020Really like this. Same flavor as the edited with more peat. Couldn’t have too much still given how sweet these are.
