Almost every Amrut i have had, are great whiskies. But, the last one i had, the "normal" Amrut peated Single Malt, was not memorable. I had a Cask Strength Whisky Tasting a couple of nights ago, and one of the drams i had was the Amrut Peated CASK STRENGTH, which i was a little skeptical about, since the "softer version" wasn't really good. But, this actually was a very good whisky, let's talk about it. Bottled at 62.8%abv, tawny color. On the nose, it is very close to a perfect score. "Lulo" fruit (Naranjilla), fruit salad, strawberry, oranges. A heathery peat, medicinal notes, bananas, chocolate. Very earthy also, but mostly tropical. Old oranges; bananas bathed in chocolate. After a couple of sips, it becomes very maritime. Ceviche, passionfruit and oysters. Bacon also present. On the palate, it is fairly enjoyable, with a very fancy toffee note that turns into a sulphuric peppery note. Milk chocolate. Oranges. Aftertaste is where the peat really is found. Very peaty, grassy, very sulphuric. Spicy: wasabi and ginger. Overall this is one great whisky, very balanced. It can definitively surprise you. My score for it is a solid 90 over 100 and i do recommend it, specially since in my tasting class i was the one with the lowest score for it; there where people who absolutely loved it to the point of saying this was maybe the greatest dram they had so far in their lives.
