Whiskey: Amrut Kadhambam Single Malt
Matured in 3 different cask-types – ‘Bangalore Blue Brandy’ casks (sounds exciting huh?), Rum casks, and Oloroso Sherry Butts. Sure to sell out super-quick.
Size: 750mL
Proof: 100 (50% ABV)
Origin: India
Distillery: Amrut Distilleries
Kadhambam means ‘mixture’ or ‘combination’, and this Amrut certainly lives up to its name: a vatting of normal and peated Amrut that started life in ex-oloroso casks before being transferred first into brandy casks, then into rum casks (both the rum and brandy having been produced at Amrut also). A curious mixture, but it works. This is a unique and thrilling whisky.
Amrut Kadhambam Single Malt Whisky Tasting Notes
Nose: A sort of savoury note.

Finish: Apples on the finish.
