Amrut Fusion Single Malt Whiskey has recently been rated the 3 rd Finest Whisky in the World by Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible.
Heavy, thickly oaked and complex: some curious barley-sugar notes here shrouded in soft smoke. Big, but seductively gentle, too. The taste though controlled at first, is massive! Then more like con-fusion as that smoke on the nose turns into warming, full blown peat, but it far from gets its own way as a vague sherry trifle note (curious, seeing how there are no sherry butts involved) - the custard presumably is oaky vanilla - hammers home that barley - fruitiness to make for a bit of a free-for- all; the flavours develop into a really intense chocolate fudge middle which absolutely resonates through the palate. Above all the spices, rather than lying down and accepting their fate, rise up and usher this extraordinary whisky to its finish.
