Macroys has launched its newest Extra Peated Blended Scotch Whisky in India which has been distilled, aged and blended in Scotland. Currently the whisky is available in Punjab and Chandigarh at a price point of Rs. 1800/- & Rs.1500/- per 750ml bottle.
What’s unique about this extra peat flavour is that this whisky has been given a smoky flavour by compounds which are released by the peat fires used to dry malted barley. The Length and intensity of exposure to the peat smoke dictates the strength of this flavour as do the characteristics of the peat itself. The blend is matured using the BB1 barrels, the once used American Oak Bourbon barrels holding only Bourbon which infuse a distinct character to the whisky.
Angus Dundee is also known for its popular brands like Tomintoul and Glencadam that are renowned with the consumers across the globe.
