I’m really annoyed by this whisky. For the price of $75, including two glasses for crying out loud, there must be something seriously wrong with it given the ever increasing price tags on Indian whisky. But I’m struggling to find fault. It’s not particularly complex. And if you have zero tolerance for sulphur, you might find the hint of firework on the nose off-putting. But it’s well balanced for a sherry cask finish, more dark chocolate and dried fruits than white sugar, with just the right amount of dryness to the satisfying finish. And the dash of sulphur on the nose is exactly how I like it. Part of me wishes this was $50 more expensive so I could more easily resist buying a bottle. But at this price, I’ll probably find it hard to pass up if I come across one in the wild. So do me a favor and buy them all before I can - I have no room nor appetite for more bottles.

Tasted the Indian Peated and the Fusion. I 've found this equivalent in taste, cheers to those who agree! The giftpack with 2 glasses I've found worth the price.

Quite good single malt. Lot of Spicyness. Very nice long lasting taste with Rich fruit notes

Tasty, definitely a sweeter Sherry in the casks (PX?) Surprisingly good.
