What's in a name? Amrut Fusion whisky is called whisky because it's produced in India. Were it from America it would be spelled Amrut Fusion whiskey, rather than whisky.
Nose: Rich, barley, fruity. Big on citrus, spices, creamy sweetness. A hint of peat.
Palate: Oaky, rich, gentle peat, coffee, dark chocolate. Fruity.
Finish: Long, spiced, marmalade, sweetness.
a very good feeing of peat & oak its something different.........
the packing is also different ,givs very gracy look..........
Nose: Dark sugar, spicy vanillas with a juicy bitterness in the background. Taste: Sweet ginger syrup on entry, burnt orange peel follows with warm spices. Finish is long and deep. The complexity here is engrossing and strange - a wonderful dram and definitely a must for any enthusiast. Mr. K
This one is great. I must say i like Amrut overall,but this one is probably the best of them all!
Finally managed to sample this much-talked-about whisky. Very interesting fusion indeed. You'll feel more than a hint of peat really if your bar otherwise has Indian single malts. But great finish! Very difficult to find a bottle though.
... and I must say that it was very pleasent indeed. It has a very strong flavour which is not to overyone's liking. If you don't like blow-your-socks-off Scotch single malts, then I don't think that you will be a big fan; from the tasting panel of my friends, the majority didn't like it - but I did! My preference in style is first and foremost, a decent XO Cognac (I know that's not whisky), followed peated scotch single malts - Irish, American, Canadian, and the lighter more floral Scotch single malts I don't really like. So this whisky fitted in with my preference in style. I just need to wait for it to come back into stock to order another bottle!
Does not work for me at all
This whisky has a remarkable - Fantastic nose. As good as any Scotch Whisky in it's class. Nutty and full of sweet dark sugar. On the palate is full on slightly peat blast, with a young spirit taste. Nothing offensive, actually great. The finish is long with heavy fruity overtones. All-in-all, a truly great single malt whisky. I recommend this to any good friend.
Am actually not a whisky person but Amrut Fusion has been a revelation. Finished a bottle in no time!! Highly recommended.
I agree with the poster above about the Chemical taste. It doesn't make me think of whiskey at all. I don't know what to think.
