Kadhambam is a Tamil word meaning combination or mixture. True to its name, Amrut Kadhambam is a novel Single Malt that combines in itself Rum, Sherry and Brandy notes. Regular Single Malt is further matured consecutively for a further period in each casks that were previously used to mature Rum, Sherry and Brandy. In this process the Malt successively gains the aroma and the notes of Rum, Sherry and Brandy. The result is a truly gratifying mix of notes. As a succession of subtle and complex notes unravel, Amrut Kadhambam is sure to exhilarate your nose and palate with a first-of-kind experience.
