Amrut Two Indies Rum is a unique blend produced by Amrut Distilleries in Bangalore, India. It combines Caribbean rums from Jamaica, Barbados and Guyana with Indian rum made from jaggery, a concentrated form of cane juice. The rum is bottled at 42.8% ABV and typically sells for around $26-28.
Two Indies is earthy and mildly sweet on the nose with notes of dried plantains, raw coconut, and some Jamaican hogo that turns slightly rubbery as it opens in the glass. The palate is a touch sweeter with juicier tropical fruits and a soft, gingery spice that builds into the medium-length finish.
Aromas and flavors of black garlic and banana gelato, dark cocoa powder, leather, and Chinese five spice with a velvety, crisp, dry medium body and a tingling, interesting, medium-length finish imparting accents of banana and fig, caramel and cocoa, five spice, orange, clove, and and cinnamon bark.
