Amrut Cask 888 Cask Strength Single Malt Indian Whisky 700mL

Amrut Cask 888 is a remarkable cask strength expression from India's pioneering Amrut Distillery, bottled at a bold 62.8% ABV directly from a single cask. Crafted from 100% Indian barley and matured in the intense heat of Bangalore, this whisky undergoes accelerated ageing that delivers extraordinary depth and complexity in a fraction of the time of its Scottish counterparts.

Colour: Deep amber with rich mahogany hues.

Nose: Intensely fruity with dried tropical fruits, dark chocolate, and a wave of warming spice. Rich vanilla and toffee notes emerge alongside hints of oak and a subtle floral sweetness.

Palate: Full-bodied and powerful at cask strength, delivering layers of dark fruit, espresso, cinnamon, and clove. The Indian barley character shines through with a honeyed sweetness balanced by robust oak tannins.

Finish: Long and warming with lingering spice, dark chocolate, and a satisfying oakiness that speaks to its exceptional single cask provenance.

Best enjoyed with a few drops of water to open up the complexity, or neat for the full cask strength experience.
