At the foothills of the Himalaya six-row barley is grown for Paul John Distillery.
The distillery has address on Goa and they have made this Brilliant whisky ๐Ÿ˜‰

It is my first meeting with whisky from Paul John and I bought this bottle back in december 2016.
My first impression was uplifting because it had a new taste and changed in character when it got a splash of water.

I had heard that India made a lot of whisky and most of it was made on melasses. So the it would not be categorized as whisky in Europe, so I was skeptical. But this was a single malt made from barley on pot stills and aged for more than 3 years – Great and then the taste was Brilliant.

I will have to try more Indian whisky and more from Paul John.

Behind the name Whisky Adventurer is Lars Modvig Hesselberg. In short, I enjoy immersing myself in all aspects of the whisky world. I enjoy the stories, the people, the scents, the development, the taste, the variety, the big ones, the small ones, the distilleries and much more. Telling and passing on knowledge and experiences through speech, writing and pictures is a big part of the whole experience for me.
