Whisky Online Cy by F&S Kiosk Company Ltd (Crossroad Cava)
The Amrut distillery was founded in 1948 as Amrut Laboratories. Established by Shri J N Radhakrishna, the company started blending and bottling various alcoholic beverages. During the 1950s and 1960s, Amrut launched products for the Indian armed forces as well as the general market; products included the dark rum Amrut XXX and Silver Cup Brandy. During the 1970s, Amrut began marketing a grape brandy called Bejois, made from Bangalore blue grapes.
It was not until the 1980s that the company began producing malt whisky. The guidelines for what constitutes a whisky in India are decidedly lax, in fact 90% of whisky consumed in India is made from molasses and blended malt whisky can contain as little as 4% malt whisky. Amrut strived to provide a better product that would meet global requirements and employed the help of whisky experts from Scotland to perfect the processes. The barley is specially grown in the foothills of the Himalayas and the whisky is matured at 3,000ft at Bangalore. Due to the tropical conditions, the whisky matures extremely quickly. As much as fifteen percent abv is lost every year to the angel’s share, thus it is unwise to mature it for much more than a few years, lest the product drops below forty percent abv and ceases to be whisky.

Amrut 10 Year Old Greedy Angels Batch 01 2019 Release (70cl, 55%)
In stock
This impressive Indian single malt is the delicious work of Amrut. The 2019 release of Greedy Angels was matured in oak casks for a whole decade before bottling at a generous 55% ABV. The liquid was presented in this rather elegant decanter, complete with glass stopper. The title comes from the Angel’s Share, the name given to the whisky that evaporates during maturation. Those angels can be greedy indeed, but they didn’t get their hands on this whisky!

Amrut 10 Year Old Greedy Angels Peated Rum Finish 2019 Release (70cl, 57.1%)
In stock
Amrut Greedy Angels 10 Year Old is a rare dram and it’s an interesting expression to say the least. This is the oldest Indian whisky and the limited edition release saw just 320 sets available across the globe – so it is a true collector’s item. The nose is fairly exotic with some banana, ginger and spiced oranges and if you add a drop of H2O you can detect apricots and coconut.

Amrut Fushion X Batch No.1 2020 Limited Edition (70cl, 50%)
In stock
Amrut Fusion X is a collectable with just 1010 bottles released internationally to commemorate the 10th anniversary of Amrut Distilleries.
Amrut Fusion X (ten), a special, limited-edition single malt whisky was launched on the November 25 in honour of the 10th anniversary of Amrut Distilleries. This is the brand that put Indian whiskies on the global map and gave us Amrut Spectrum, Naarangi, Amalgam, and of course, Fusion.
In 2009, the late chairman and managing director, Neelkanta Rao Jagdale was high up in the mountains of Nilgiris in Ooty. Fired with the desire to create a whisky that was Indian in nature, but international in its profile, he worked with several samples of peated and unpeated malts at his summer residence in the hills, till he arrived at the mix that was to become the final character of Amrut Fusion.
On his return to Bengaluru, the production team got to work, and Amrut Fusion was launched in 2010. It went on to win three awards and was adjudged 3rd Best Whisky in the world by whisky-guru Jim Murray. As a brand, Amrut is currently present in 58 countries with a globally growing footprint.
The cap is unique and comes from Portugal. It has a sketch of Neel surrounded by a rangoli pattern. It also comes with an integrated NFC chip in partnership with Vlinder, which adds a great level of safety to your collectable bottle. Buyers can tap the NFC on the bottle and will know on their smartphones if the bottle has ever been opened. They will also be able to access a vast array of information about the whisky online.
Whisky lovers, we certainly hope you can add this bottle to your collection.

Amrut Kadhambam Third Edition (70cl, 50%)
In stock
Here we have an Indian single malt from Amrut, titled Kadhambam, which means ‘mixture’ in Tamil, and you’ll realise why that name was chosen once you hear all about the cask maturation. It’s initially matured in bourbon casks, before being transferred into Oloroso sherry casks, then moved to brandy casks and, finally, into rum casks. Finally, the whisky was bottled at 50% ABV, packed with a pretty unique flavour profile.
