My first Indian single malt and have to say Im impressed. Got it on sale at TW for $29.99 cant beat that. Poured neat nose is fruity and spicy. Plenty of melon, nutmeg and allspice alongside some malt and a curry like note(don't know if Im mentally getting this cause its Indian but I think its truly there). Palate is a bit youthful but vibrant with the spicy cantaloupe, malt, barrel and cumin heat all coming together nicely. Finish is lasting with spiced woody malts and fruit rinds. This is a surprisingly good whisky despite NAS sizzle and lack of Scottish terroir . It reminds me of a spicier Auchentoshan. If you are a Scotch fan but a little gun shy about Indian whisky as I was don't be. This is very tasty with solid flavor depth and obvious quality. Im very keen on trying Amrut now as well......86/100
