Amrut Two Indies White Rum (70cl, 42.8%)

Amrut Two Indies White Rum brings together two Indian rum styles with a Jamaican component. Amrut distils sugar cane juice rum in pot stills and matures it in American oak casks; the jaggery rum from Karnataka is also pot-distilled and matured in American oak. Jaggery is an unrefined raw sugar. The Jamaican rum adds fruity esters to the blend. The blend is bottled in India at 42.8% ABV. Its fresh, herbal and vegetal character suits both neat discovery and a Daiquiri or Mojito. Amrut was founded in 1948 in Bangalore by Shri J.N. Radhakrishna, originally as Amrut Laboratories. Alongside whisky, rum and gin are part of its range, and for Two Indies White the distillery combines its own Indian distillates with Jamaican rum.
