Rampur Distillery is the oldest distillery in India, with its start in 1943. The brand exclusively releases single malt whiskies, all distilled in copper pot stills. A major benefit to the distillery is the unique climate India provides. The high temperatures age the whiskey much faster than the cold climates of northern Europe, or even the American South. In this way, good-tasting whiskey can be made much quicker, but at a cost – the angels get more than their fair share in the deal.
Matured in a combination of ex-bourbon barrels and European oak sherry casks, this Indian single malt from Rampur has a rich, complex character. Aromas of tropical fruits mingle with sweet malt, oak, honey and dried fruits on the nose, and the palate offers notes of dark berries, dried fruits, cinnamon, nutmeg and salted caramel.
