Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.
Amrut’s single cask bottlings for the USA carry the Aatma name, and this whisky comes from peated Indian barley matured in an ex-Bourbon cask for 6 years and 11 months. The nose has touches of roasted corn, campfire smoke, toasted caramel, honey, subtle spices, and a hint of vanilla. The taste has spicy notes of black pepper and cinnamon along with toasted caramel, honey, and touches of vanilla and dark chocolate that come out with time. A few drops of water opens up touches of tree fruits and campfire smoke. The finish is long and spicy with a touch of smoke. Excellent! (August, 2021)
