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.

Absolutely blown away with this whisky. Miles ahead of it's price point, well worth picking up. Orchard fruits, spice, long finish, just wow!
It's a Brilliant Dram
Phenomenal!
Fruity. Good stuff with a lingering & enjoyable aftertaste. Not quite as good as Amrut Fusion but I would say of good value.
This is an extremely surprising whiskey and very well worth a try. I absolutely loved it.
