Brought to the world
from the sultry coasts of Goa, the Paul John Single Malts are made from
carefully chosen indigenous ingredients including 6 row barley from the
foothills of the Himalayas. Moreover the tropical climate of the region
provides the ideal temperature and ambiance for the whisky to mature to
perfection.
John Distilleries first launched the Paul John Single Malt
whisky in the United Kingdom in 2012. Ever since, its success in this sphere
has been invincible. It didn’t take much time for experts from across the globe
to take notice of the exceptional single malt whisky, further opening doors to
some of the biggest, internationally recognized awards for the brand.
Paul John Single Malt Whisky reached its milestone moment when
it was rated ‘Liquid Gold’ by Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible – the world’s
leading whisky guide that professionally analyses the finest whiskies from
around the world. Whisky Guru Jim Murray grades these whiskies
on a score of 100. These scores are reflective of four key criteria that they
are judged on – nose, taste, finish and balance and are each scored for out of
25. The Paul John Single Malt Whisky was graded a spectacular 94.5 and was
described as "the
smoke, through serious maturation, has now moved into a stunning structured
herbal nature with lavender and mint... such a brilliant mouth feel... a
sublime peated malt from India."
