An interesting experiment from the chaps at Amrut, who shipped four bourbon barrels 5,000 miles from Bangalore to the remote German Island of Helgoland to finish their maturation. The result is a more complex Amrut and one that fans of this innovative distillery will savour.
Typical Amrut sweetness on the nose with lots of vanilla and caramel.
Spicy notes develop on the palette against a voluptuous background of malty caramel sweetness. This is mouth filling stuff.
A more refined and longer finish than typical Amruts, with some pleasant bitter oak notes and burnt sugar.
Lots to hold your interest here; well-structured, complex and all in all a successful experiment.
