AMRUT NILGIRIS BARREL AGED GIN
Versatile spirit flavored with juniper and botanicals, central to classic and modern cocktails.
Limited Edition Nilgiris Gin is aged in a combination of Peated and Unpeated Amrut casks for a short period, enough to accentuate the intrinsic flavors of the original Nilgiris Gin and also deliver a dynamic influence of the casks. This limited-edition gin was handcrafted using imported and locally sourced botanicals. The finished spirit was then matured in ex-bourbon casks with the final maturation in a combination of peated and unpeated Amrut casks for a few months, the same casks that produce Amrut's award-winning whiskies. Next, the gin from all the casks was blended so the flavors of the original gin and that derived from the oak could combine for a rich, uniform profile. The gin has been married for almost as many months as it was matured, to create a depth of flavor that would make the gin versatile. This is a gin for mixologists, aficionados and amateurs alike.
Tasting Notes
Sip smooth Gin, celebrate moments, elevate every occasion's spirit.
Nose
It starts with a bitter orange ascent, marmalade jam. A touch of dark chocolate, mint and dried berries blended with wood-kissed juniper, the dust of cinnamon and musk. Adding to the mix is an abundance of warm spices that invigorate the senses.
Palate
The richness of oak is fused with bitter spices and marmalade. Soon, it relaxes into soft florals and pine that meet with a hint of liquor chocolates and paan at the back.
Finish
A salivating long finish of pine, marmalade and spices, coupled with the dryness of oak.
