Produced by John Distilleries in Goa, India, the Paul John range of single malt whiskies is named after their Chairman. Made using Indian 6-row barley from the Himalayan foothills, Brilliance is matured in bourbon barrels for 3-5 years before bottling at cask strength. (As with other Indian single malts, the tropical climate causes greater evaporation, around 12-13% a year, but in turn they show very well at younger ages.)
Good core of juicy barley. Ryvita with salted butter. Cinnamon-dusted-red berries, with a little green apple skin following it up.
Chomp Bars - lots of chewy caramel and chocolate here. Picks up from lively spice along the way, with a little bit of waxy orange peel on the mid palate.
Orange lingers. Surprisingly long, with the rye notes from the nose coming back in full force.
A fine Indian single malt from John Distilleries.
It'a alright, it's OK,I think it's decent. I think the two negative reviews are written by the same person
India in every drop. lots of character...highly recommended.
Absolutely loved every drop of the bottle..Well done Paul John for amazing whiskies. will buy again and again.
very very delicious whisky. it is like biting in to vanilla flavoured snack coated in honey with some saltiness coming through. full bodied and lots of great characters..will buy again. recommended for sure...buying one for my father for Father's Day too.
Brilliance is very delicious whisky...I have tried several Scotch Whiskies and this Indian Whiskies surely can give any scotch whisky a run for its money...highly recommended and absolutely love it..
