There’s nothing quite like a warming glass of complex whisky on a cold late fall or winter day, especially during the holiday season. This is why we get so excited when whisky brands launch expressions, especially during the holidays. The newest release that fits the criteria comes from the folks at Paul John Indian Single Malt Whisky.
Paul John Christmas Edition
It’s called Paul John Christmas Edition, and the 2024 version is the seventh edition of this popular annual series. Produced in Goa, India, at the foot of the Himalayan Mountains, this seasonal expression is made with rare single malt whisky finished in Caribbean rum barrels before being vatted and blended with single malt whisky matured in virgin oak casks.
According to Paul John, this 46% ABV sipping whisky is known for its pineapple, mango, toasted vanilla beans, and sandalwood aromas. Sipping it reveals hints of toasted coconuts, candied orange peels, and toasted oak. The finish is a warming mix of salted caramel, tannins, and dried fruits,
“We are excited to release the 7th edition within our exclusive Christmas Edition series, which we hope will bring joy to whisky collectors during the upcoming holiday season,” Paul P John, Chairman, John Distilleries Pvt Ltd, said in a press release.
“We have seen an increase in consumer demand and anticipation surrounding each yearly Christmas Edition release, which inspires us at Paul John to continue to raise the bar on the quality of this limited and festive Indian Single Malt.”
