I'm definitely an Amrut fanboy. Most of these drams have allowed me to emerge from my earlier peaty visions of what spirits "should be"; Amrut, for me was, a gateway drug to fruit forward whiskey. The premium finishes from this distillery are very chewy, jammy, and overall yummy. This one is perfect for a cold or rainy day, this is even hard to reach past when it's 100 degrees. Strawberry jam, chocolate, chewable grape aspirin... are obvious flavors. The finish isn't as abrupt as some other whiskey personalities suggest, but it is incongruent from the rest of the dense experience. There's enough bitterness at the tail to keep me coming back for more of the jammy fruit at the beginning. The value and price is the only substantial knock. You'll probably like it but maybe not at the price; you'll love it if someone gets it for you as a gift :) 5.0 - go out and buy all of the stock you can find. 4.0 - must buy at least one bottle before you die. 3.0 - solid, must try at a bar, or mooch from a friend. 2.0 - didn't like it, you may. 1.0 - you may have the palate of my dog, and he licks his own ass.
