- Description
- Paul John's 2018 Christmas Edition blends unpeated and peated single malts from their Goa distillery, finished in oloroso casks before bottling at 46% without chill filtration. The palate combines peaty smoke and maritime notes with the oloroso finish's raisined sweetness and spice, creating festive complexity. Full-bodied and warming with a drying, spiced finish. An unconventional Indian single malt that bridges regional and seasonal traditions.
