Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Deep amber with rich mahogany highlights; virgin oak and bourbon cask combination gives intense colour
Nose
Extraordinary complexity — dark chocolate, dried fruit, orange peel, leather, spice. American virgin oak gives bold tannins and intense wood character. Bourbon finishing smooths and integrates. The third finest whisky in the world (Jim Murray 2021)
Palate
Full body. Intense and multilayered — dark chocolate, dried fruit, orange peel, leather, vanilla, spice. Virgin oak boldness tempered by bourbon smoothness. Tropical fruit, honey, walnut emerge with water. Paul John's flagship premium expression
Finish
Very long finish. Dark chocolate, leather, spice, oak, dried fruit persist. Layer after layer. Rated third finest whisky in the world by Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2021. A landmark Indian single malt
