NOT BENGAL TIGER! Rather a rare single cask bottling, 4yo, 2009 vintage, finished in PX casks, at a heroic 62.8%, so the most similar listing I could find was the Bengal Tiger bottling. I'll move this if it's true listing appears.
Nose: bold raw oats, sweet apple blossom, dusty oak. Palate: hot and sweet, viscous, spicy wood, hint of minty menthol. Finish: fairly long, freshly sawn boards, bittersweet, quite numbing without astonishing amounts of added water. Two memorable underrated Malts come to mind, the dusty old books of Aberfeldy 12, and the earthy "je ne sais quoi" of Jura 10, albeit with a slightly raw edge... Thanks be to the magnanimous Pranay for the sample! Dry glass: faint cardamom?!

Oh---and you got cardamom too? I get cardamom in every Amrut. There's gotta be a cardamom farm close to the distillery...😉
It's strong isn't it? I had to add a huge chunk of ice, couldn't manage it at that ABV
