What happens when a distiller and a brewer swap barrels? India's first stout cask finish Single Malt whisky, apparently. Amrut and Geist didn't plan this – they stumbled into it. Six barrels, eleven months of maturation, and one gulkand note that made Ashok bottle it by hand. The first batch sold out before anyone could overthink it. Sometimes the best collaborations are accidents waiting to be terrific.
