This intriguing Amrut was specially bottled for La Maison du Whisky Singapore’s 15th anniversary; hand selected by the LMDW SG Team, it was pitted against multiple marvelous cask samples at their storefront @ Robertson Quay. This Ex-Bourbon cask knocked it out of the park with its profound complexity and balance of fruitiness with a play of slight peat. Incredible on the nose, its palate was far more aromatic than expected.

NOSE:

Elegant and complex. On the initial nose, a subtle hint of wood smoke accompanied by aromas of fresh fruit (passionfruit, apricot, mangos), honey and vanilla. When allowed to air, notes of leather, menthol and ashes emerge. Spectacular.

PALATE:

Robust and bold. On the palate, strong attacks of ripe stone fruits (mangos, peaches) with a balanced amount of oak. The faint smokiness enhances the overall complexity and depth, allowing creamy vanilla hints to linger on the palate. Fresh and fruity!

OVERALL:

Long, extremely well balanced. Fruity, oaky (stave oak), musky, earthy, peaty yet clean. Floral (lavender, lilac), oily and definitely leaving an impression as huge as its flavors.
