Amrut Peated Indian Single Malt

Amrut Peated Indian single malt whisky is made from selected Indian barley grown at the feet of the Himalayas, nurtured by the waters flowing there and cultivated by old and traditional agricultural practices. It is carefully mashed and distilled in small batches to preserve the natural aroma and matured in oak barrels in a unique tropical condition,at an altitude of 3,000 feet above sea level at Bangalore, the garden city of India.To retain the natural characteristics of this oak aged Indian Malt Whisky, we do not chill filter, some haze may therefore be noticed in the product. Amrut presents this product as a humble tribute to the Indian farmer,who has grown this barley with care and affection with which he has tilled the soil Nose : Unusually dry peat; not dissimilar to peak reek absorbed by an old leather arm chair, a hint of citrus too; Taste : Despite the nose, the immediate sensation is one of being caressed by molassed sugar and then a ratching up of the peat notes. As they get more forceful, so the experience becomes that little bit drier and spicier, though not without the molasses refusing to give way; Finish : You can tell the quality of the distilate and the barrels it has been matured in by the crystalline depth to the finish. Everything is clear on the palate and the butterscotch vanillas wrap the phenols for a comfortable and clean finale

Kavalan Concertmaster Port Cask Finish

Concertmaster is a single malt whisky that stresses the singular character yet does not lose its comprehensive harmony. Portuguese ruby, tawny and vintage Port casks are used to develop the main flavour, combining Ka Va Lan's unique Taiwanese whisky attributes to compose a harmonic symphony. Presenting a natural colour free from additives, its original flavour with a port finish is composed of layers of flavours and fragrances. The air in Yilan, where Kavalan whisky is distilled, is considered to be pure and fresh in Taiwan. It is the fresh air that gives Kavalan whisky its smooth, creamy and refreshing character. Kavalan Concertmaster single malt whisky is first matured in specially selected American oak casks and then finished in port barriques. Port, a fortified wine, is traditionally made in Douro valley in Portugal. The marrying in the barriques mellows the flavours and adds indefinable smoothness to the whisky. Kavalan Concertmaster was awarded silver medals at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
