Summary
Indri Trini—The Three Wood is a 46% ABV Indian single malt made from indigenous six-row barley and matured separately in ex-bourbon, ex-French wine and PX sherry casks before being brought together. It is non-chill-filtered and contains no added colour; the resulting style is fruity, softly sweet, nutty, and gently spiced rather than smoky.
