Amrut Greedy Angels Chairman's Reserve 12 year old Bourbon Finish, 60%

Price: 2000 Issue: Winter 2024 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Indian Whisky

This is all about the base notes, with its aromas of chestnut, chocolate orange, vanilla essence, licorice, espresso, and leather. Silky smooth initially, with chocolate, cranberry, and peppercorn, then a crescendo builds to an epic, mouth-puckering spicy peak, followed by flavors of pomegranate, chocolate brownie, Americano, and vanilla essence. At this proof, you can be generous with the water, which allows the firm fruitiness to come to the fore
