Amrut was founded in 1948, in Bangalore, India, as a distillery of blended whisky and rum. Since the nineties they also make a Single Malt. Their copper boilers are made in Scotland. They also buy peated barley in Scotland for making their smoky, peated Whisky. This Peated matures about 4 years on bourbon casks. In Bangalore, it is warm and dry; the maturing process is therefore very fast. The whisky is smoky, spicy and fruity.
