- Description
- Paul John's Indian distillery produced this peated single malt in October 2009, maturing in first-fill bourbon for nearly seven years before bottling at cask strength in May 2016. The equatorial climate accelerates maturation, delivering richer extraction and deeper colour than equivalent Scottish ages. A distinctive peated expression from an emerging whisky region, suited to adventurous drinkers seeking alternatives to established Scottish sources.
