Amrut Peated Aged in Oak Barrels Single Malt Whisky, India
The peated Indian.
The distillery's name Amrut comes from Indian mythology and the word means Nectar of life in Sanskrit. In Indian mythology the forces of evil (Rakshas) and good (the Gods) fought each other in a fierce war with a mythical snake (Adishesha), that was tied around a golden mountain in the midst of an ocean. The fight stirred the waves and a pot containing divine liquid rose up. Anyone who drank this liquid was given eternal life.
Amrut Peated is made from selected Indian Barley grown up the feet of the Himalayas, matured by the water flowing there and cultivated by old & traditional agricultural practices. After local Indian farmers harvest the barley the grains are carefully dried over peat fire. It is carefully mashed and distilled in small batches to preserve the natural aroma, matured in oak barrels in unique tropical conditions, at an altitude of 3000 feet above sea level at Bangalore, the garden city of India.
Amrut Peated Single Malt Whisky is aged in oak barrels for at least 4 years and has approximately 23 PPM. A great peated offering from the land of the Great Himalayas.
