A rare whisky is making waves in India—one that’s not just the country’s oldest but also packs the strongest ‘kick’ whisky lovers crave. Amrut Distilleries has unveiled India’s oldest and most expensive single malt, aged for 15 years in Sherry and Bourbon casks. With only 75 bottles available worldwide, this exclusive release boasts deep, complex flavors. Priced at over $10,000, it’s a collector’s dream and a milestone for Indian whisky on the global stage.
75 Bottles Of Expedition
A total of 75 bottles of Expedition will be available of which nine are reserved for India and 66 will be sold overseas including Europe, America, Australia and Asia Pacific region. With this unveiling of Amrut Expedition, Amrut Distilleries has once again put India on the global whisky map.
Ageing Process
This whisky’s journey is unlike any other. It first spent eight years in a specially sourced Sherry cask from Europe, developing deep, opulent flavors. It was then transferred to an ex-Bourbon cask from the United States for an additional seven years, further refining its complexity. This dual-cask maturation technique gives Amrut Expedition an unparalleled depth of character, making it a truly one-of-a-kind single malt.
Expedition Process
Every bottle of Expedition is more than just whisky—it’s a masterpiece. Housed in a handcrafted, hand-painted box, each bottle is individually numbered and engraved, making it truly one of a kind. The bottle itself boasts a stunning diamond-cut design with gold engravings forming a unique pattern. Adding to its exclusivity, each unit comes with a silver peg measure, crafted by a skilled Bangalore silversmith.
Amrut, a trailblazer in India’s single malt scene, has unveiled Expedition—a whisky that marks a historic milestone in Indian distilling. Aged for 15 years, it redefines Indian whisky standards with a meticulous maturation process. The whisky first spent eight years absorbing rich, opulent flavors from a specially sourced European sherry cask before aging another seven years in an American ex-bourbon cask, adding depth and complexity.
With a price tag of ₹8.72 Lakh ($10,000) in India, Expedition is more than just a rare luxury—it’s a testament to India’s evolving whisky culture and the refined palate of its connoisseurs.
