Indri Trini Three Wood (box set with 2 glasses)

The brand’s flagship (and currently only) offering is Indri Trini – The Three Wood, a whisky that left a memorable first impression when I initially tasted it several months ago. The whisky is named after the city Indri in the state of Haryana, which is where the brand’s parent company is located. Piccadily Agro was officially founded in 1967, but the founding family has been in the alcohol distribution business since 1953. Alcohol production started in 1994, but it wasn’t until 2012 that the facility was upgraded to include a malt distillery.

Indri Trini – The Three Wood starts with a six-row barley variety (common for Indian whisky) grown in the neighbouring state of Rajasthan. As the name suggests, it matures in three different cask types, namely ex-bourbon, French red wine and ex-Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. Maturation brings some challenges, as the warehouses are located in an area where the temperature can range from near zero degrees Celsius in winter to +40 degrees in summer.

This smart set includes a bottle of the impressive Indri Trini Three Wood Indian single malt whisky, accompanied by a smart pair of branded glasses. The whisky was matured in a combo of first-fill bourbon, French Wine, and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks in the extreme climates of the Himalayan foothills for a complex profile brimming with creamy malt, tropical fruit, and aromatic oak.
