For decades, single malt whisky was treated as Scotland's birthright; a category so deeply rooted in place, climate and centuries of tradition that few imagined anyone else could seriously challenge its whisky-making abilities. Then came Amrut. Founded in 1948, the Bengaluru distillery spent decades quietly building a different vision of Indian whisky, and its rise has helped put Indian single malt whisky firmly on the global map. Today, Amrut no longer needs to prove that India belongs in the conversation. From the landmark Amrut Fusion and rare Greedy Angels to the distinctly citrus-led Naarangi, the distillery has built a portfolio that embraces experimentation without losing sight of the whisky-making tradition. These 5 Amrut whiskies show just how far that idea has travelled. Also, read all about these Amrut whisky bottles' prices in cities like Mumbai, Mangalore, and Bangalore.

5 Best Amrut Whiskies Every Connoisseur Should Know

Amrut Indian Single Malt Whisky Exclusive Edition

The Amrut Exclusive Edition rounds out the lineup with a richer, more polished profile built around tropical fruit, honey, oak, cinnamon, and cloves. It is a fitting reminder that Amrut's idea of luxury is not about imitating Scotch, it is about giving Indian whisky its own vocabulary.

Amrut Indian Single Malt Whisky Exclusive Edition is priced at ₹10,400 in Mumbai.

ABV: 46%.

Amrut Naarangi Single Malt Whisky

Amrut Naarangi is perhaps Amrut's most playful experiment. Its casks are seasoned with oloroso sherry, wine and orange peel before the whisky receives a further finishing period. The result is unmistakably citrus-led, with orange cake, chocolate, cinnamon, ginger and black pepper making the whisky feel unlike almost anything else in the category.

Amrut Naarangi is priced at ₹8,500 in Bangalore. 

ABV: 50%.

Amrut Intermediate Sherry

This cask-strength expression begins in ex-bourbon barrels before spending time in Spanish ex-Oloroso sherry butts and returning to bourbon casks to complete its maturation. Bottled at 57.1% ABV, it brings dried fruit, spice, and rich sherry character with considerably more muscle.

Amrut Intermediate Sherry is priced at ₹5,760 in Mangalore.

ABV: 55%.

Amrut Fusion Single Malt Whisky

Fusion remains the natural starting point. It marries Indian barley with peated Scottish barley before maturation in American oak, creating a whisky that moves between tropical fruit, vanilla, spice and gentle peat smoke. At 50% ABV, it has plenty of presence without losing its balance. Amrut Fusion was released in 2009 and was ranked the world's third-best whisky by Jim Murray in 2010.

Amrut Fusion Single Malt price in Mumbai is ₹5,500 for 750ml. 

ABV: 50%.

Amrut Greedy Angels Chairman's Reserve 8 Year Old Single Malt Whisky

Greedy Angels takes Indian maturation to another level. Made from 100% unpeated Indian six-row barley and aged for 10 years in ex-bourbon barrels, this limited release comprises just 900 bottles worldwide. Amrut describes each edition as unique, with a profile reminiscent of whisky aged for more than 30 years in Scotland.

This is a discontinued, limited-edition release and is not listed for retail sale; it surfaces only on the secondary/collector market. 

ABV: 50%.

Amrut's real achievement is not simply producing Indian single malt. It is proving that India can make whisky with a character entirely its own, and then having the confidence to keep pushing that character in unexpected directions. Amrut has built a portfolio that asks only one thing of the drinker: an open mind. These whisky bottles take care of the rest.

Note: Amrut whisky bottles' prices mentioned are current listings for Mumbai, Mangalore, and Bangalore at the time of publishing and may vary by city, state taxes, availability, and retailer.
