Product Info
Named after the Indian name for Gemini, the third sign of the Mithuna zodiac in the Paul John Zodiac series. Unpeated and non-chill-filtered, it is matured in American virgin oak casks and finished in ex-bourbon casks. Refined licorice aromas, with aged oak tones and soft beeswax, lead to a rich palate of Ulmo honey over crispy toast and delicate vanilla notes. The palate is filled with coffee mocha, orange peel, and delicate spice, resting on vibrant tannins, while a soft, oily finish reveals the essence of dark cocoa tones. The finish is satisfyingly long and complex, with varying tones of sugar and delicate honey notes. The characteristic of Gemini, renowned for its balance of contrasting powers, is perfectly embodied in this Indian single malt. The captivating layers of stern, dry tannins balance beautifully with the sumptuous sugar and mocha notes that unfold over delicate oils.
