Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

wow! Earlier Amruts were great but this one starts even nicer on the nose, with a superb flintiness and some smoke on top of the very pleasant maltiness. Also quite some yellow flowers and a little honey, cooked butter, mashed potatoes, a little caramel… The smokiness never vanishes. Top notch

restaurant Palate

sweeter and fruitier, pretty much like a fresh fruit salad with a little ginger and just touches of coriander. Also something mildly resinous (cough sweets), some liquorice, vanilla, then more spices (cardamom first, then cloves and white pepper) and finally hints of plum spirit. Very good

timer Finish

rather long, lively, with the fruitiness still there alongside the oak’s spiciness (black pepper)
