Amrut Whisky Single Malt Peated

Unusually dry peat; not dissimilar to peat reek absorbed by an old leather armchair; a hint of citrus, too.Despite the nose, the immediate sensation is one of being caressed by molassed sugar and then a ratching up of the peat notes. As they get more forceful, so the experience becomes that little bit drier and spicier, though not without the molasses refusing to give way.You can tell the quality of the distillate and the barrels it has been matured in by the crystalline depth to the finish.
