Indri Trini is a remarkable whisky produced in Indri, Haryana, nestled in the foothills of the majestic Himalayas. This exquisite single malt whisky showcases the unique qualities of Indian distilling, utilizing indigenous six-row barley through time-honored Scottish-style copper pot stills. The subtropical climate of India plays a crucial role in the maturation process, accelerating it to a pace that significantly surpasses typical whisky aging in Scotland. As a result, Indri's whiskies exhibit remarkable depth and complexity, making them a worthy addition to any connoisseur's collection.
The Indri-Trini Three Wood variant notably stands out as the first whisky from India matured in three different types of casks: ex-bourbon, ex-wine, and Pedro Ximénez (PX) sherry. This innovative approach harmonizes the character of each wood without overshadowing the essence of the underlying spirit. Bottled at a strength of 46% ABV, Indri Trini is non-chill filtered and contains no added color, ensuring a pure tasting experience.
Upon nosing Indri Trini, expect to be greeted by sweet notes of caramelized pineapple and black tea, beautifully complemented by hints of vanilla and honey derived from the bourbon casks. The influence of European oak brings spiced tannins into the mix, while the PX sherry casks add enchanting sweet sherry nuances, contributing to a complex bouquet that captivates the senses.
Indri Trini's exceptional quality has not gone unnoticed, as it was crowned Best Indian Single Malt at the esteemed World Whisky Awards 2022. Additionally, it has garnered Gold at the International Spirits Challenge 2022, Gold at the Global World Whisky Masters, Platinum at the Las Vegas Global Spirits Awards 2022, and Gold at the International Whisky Competition 2022. These accolades further affirm its status as a premier choice for whisky enthusiasts.
