Naarangi, a rather intriguing new expression from Amrut distillery, released in 2017. Firstly the distillery have taken an Oloroso cask from Spain, filled it with sherry wine along with fresh orange peel and left to infuse for over 2 years. The wine is then decanted, Amrut single malt added and matured for a further 3 years, then bottled at 50% vol. The Man from Del Monte says yes!
Tasting Notes
Amrut Naarangi Producer Notes
Nose: A tug of war between Suet Pudding and dried figs with moderate teasing of orangey citrus. With time, more dried fruits evolve and is a stunner.
Taste: Viscous, full bodied like a syrup transcending to slat and sweet akin to orange influence and is a joy.
Finish: Slightly dry and one can neglect it. The finish is moderately sweet and a loud dance of orange on the finale.
