Product Information

In 1982, Jagdale had decided to create a premium whisky from barley [9] blended with malt, while most distillers in India were manufacturing whisky using molasses. The fraction lost to evaporation during ageing, known as the angels' share, is also higher in India, at 11–12% per year, than in Scotland, where the annual evaporative loss is about 2%. Fusion has been picking up awards ever since it first appeared in 2009 including getting a rating of 97 out of 100 from Jim Murray in his Whisky Bible 2010 making it the third best whisky in the world that year.

This is a young whisky, but balanced and built around a clean and sweet barley core, with toffee and vanilla at its center. The eight-year maturation in Bangalore resulted in a high evaporative loss of 12% per annum, or a total loss of 274 litres of spirit over eight years, from the two Bourbon casks the distillery had used.
