- Description
- Amrut's 8-year expression is remarkable for Indian whisky: the subcontinent's extreme heat causes 10-16% annual evaporation—the 'greedy angels'—making anything beyond four years exceptionally rare. This single malt beats the odds, developing character under Bangalore's demanding climate.
