Paul John Description
Hailing from the tropical shores of Goa, along the west coast of India, comes the Paul John single malts, a golden spirit of brilliance, from John Distilleries.
Established in 1996, John Distilleries grew to be a leading spirit company within less than a decade, not just in India but across the globe. Under the commanding guidance of Mr. Paul P John, the company owns a strong portfolio of brands in various categories including whiskies, brandy and wines. Driven by the zest to break conventions, Paul P John, set out to penetrate the highest strata of the world of whisky to create a niche of his own, with the Paul John Indian Single Malts.
From the sultry coasts of Goa, the Paul John Indian Single Malts are made from carefully chosen indigenous ingredients – barley, water and yeast – that together create a radiance of a different kind. Goa’s tropical clime offers the ideal temperature and ambience for the whisky to mature to perfection. A culmination of the graceful union of art with science, the Paul John Indian Single Malts are made from a vigilantly watched process from the mashing of grains, fermentation, distillation, maturation, vatting and finally bottling. Paul John Indian Single Malt is non-chilled filtered and there are no additives.
The various expressions of The Great Indian Single Malt is the artistic fusion of three elements- Barley, Water, & Charred Oak Casks. Each bottle has a significant character of its own.
The journey to create the most sumptuous whisky lead to a family of 5 core expressions. Brilliance, Edited and Bold are our flagship expressions. With 46% ABV, the Brilliance is a non-peated whisky, Edited has a hint of peat, while Bold is the epitome of a peated whisky.
Skillfully crafted and anchored, the Select Casks whiskies are drawn from selected cask profiles and have a distinct and unique character. The Classic is an elegant masterpiece from selected casks while the Peated offers delicious wafts of peat.
We believe in taking the hitherto untrodden trail and often experimenting with different cask finishes, creating rarities. The Oloroso, a limited edition, was the result of such an effort. This soft delicate single malt enriched with intense flavours, was finished in Oloroso casks and is a definite choice for any whisky enthusiast’s collection.
Paul John whisky recently introduced its latest limited single malt expression, The Mars Orbiter. A commemorative expression to honour India’s successful space mission, the launch of the Indian space probe to Mars.
An interplanetary quest for knowledge, pride and discovery, and completing a marathon of 670 million kilometres in 300 days, the Mars Orbiter Mission stands forever as a symbol of national prestige. With aromas of orange blossom that herald intense flavours of delicious dark cocoa, rich oak and gentle spices, this limited edition single malt culminates with a delightful smoky finish. With only 350 bottles produced, The Mars Orbiter promises to be as remarkable as its namesake!
