- Description
- Paul John's 2023 Christmas Edition is a festive single malt from India, matured in bourbon oak before a finishing period in Colheita Tawny port casks. The initial bourbon maturation builds a vanilla and caramel foundation, while the port cask finish introduces dried fruit, spice, and a deeper richness to the spirit. At 46% ABV, the texture is rounded and approachable, with a warming, lingering finish. Ideal for those seeking a bridge between Indian whisky's characteristic smoothness and the indulgence of fortified wine influences.
