Background & production
A single malt from Amrut in Bengaluru, southern India. The name 'Fusion' comes from its two barleys: unpeated Indian barley and peated Scottish barley.
Spirit from each is distilled and matured separately in American oak for more than four years, then blended and married in American oak for about three more months. It is non-chill filtered and bottled at 50%.
