AmrutNaarangi
Summary
Amrut Naarangi is a unique single malt whisky from India, aged for 6 years. This expression is notable for its innovative maturation process, where the whisky is aged in casks that previously held a combination of Oloroso sherry and orange peel. This imparts a distinctive citrus character to the whisky, setting it apart from more traditional single malts.
On the nose, this whisky offers a vibrant bouquet of orange zest, mingled with rich sherry notes and a hint of vanilla. The palate is equally intriguing, with a harmonious blend of sweet citrus, dried fruits, and subtle oak spices. The influence of the sherry cask is evident, providing a smooth and mellow texture that complements the fruity undertones.
The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering notes of orange peel and a gentle warmth from the oak. Amrut Naarangi is an excellent choice for those looking to explore a single malt with a unique twist, offering a delightful balance of sweetness and complexity.
