Amrut Distilleries was founded in 1948 by JN Radhakrishna. Its initial products were brandy and rum, but in 1982 it became the first company to make single malt whisky in India, discovering along the way that the warm Bangalore climate matures whiskies at three times the rate of that in Scotland.
Amrut, which means ‘nectar of the gods’ in Sanskrit, was introduced to the overseas market in 2004, where it has since gained a loyal following.
