WhiskyCast Episode 155: July 27, 2008

It may be seen
as a sacrilege in Scotland, but imagine a single malt whisky from India that can
compete with the best of Scotland's malts in many ways. That's the case with
Amrut's single malts, which draw their water from the snow melt of the Himalayas
and their barley from local farmers in northern India -- and their intense
maturation from the heat of Bangalore. Askok Chokalingam of Amrut gives us the
details, and Thierry Benitah of La Maison du Whisky previews September's Whisky
Live Paris. In the news, an update on the reopening of Braeval, more charity
whiskies for WhiskyFest San Francisco, and the "Whisky Bus" hits Glasgow.
