This peated malt is the fourth expression in the annual Christmas Editions series. Like the brand’s other whiskies, this one is non chill-filtered with no added colors or flavors and made from six-row barley harvested from locations as vast as Rajasthan to the foothills of the Himalayas. It is distilled in specially-designed copper pot stills with longer necks.
To create Paul John Christmas Edition 2021, the peated liquid is matured in ex-bourbon barrels and a mix of port and madeira casks in coastal Goa, where the tropical climate helps the whiskies mature faster with an angel’s share of eight percent. It is bottled at 92 proof and available in limited quantities as of October, 2021. .

Tasting Notes
"Chewy fudge and toffee lead on the nose, along with dates, waxy honey, and chrysanthemum bud. The palate offers dried fruits and candied orange peel atop allspice, cloves, and white pepper, followed by Tootsie Rolls, and finally phenols in the asphalt and car tire range. The finish is warming and moderate in length, with ginger, spicy oak, red fruits, and a layer of soft smoke."
