🎙️ Podcast Intro: Episode on Paul John Distillery, Goa, IndiaWelcome to a new episode of the Whisky.dk ai Podcast – your destination for deep dives into whisky stories and taste journeys from around the world. Today, we step far beyond the traditional whisky regions and arrive in sunny Goa, India, where a distillery has made its mark on the global whisky scene: Paul John Distillery.🌴 From tropical haven to international acclaim Paul John Distillery was founded by Paul P. John under the company John Distilleries in 1996. Originally focused on mass-market brandy and blended whisky, ambitions soon evolved – and in 2012, their first single malt whisky was launched in the UK. Since then, they've surged forward, picking up a string of prestigious awards.🌾 Local ingredients, global influence The whisky is crafted from Indian six-row barley, which lends an intense and distinctive flavour profile. Some editions are lightly peated using peat imported directly from Scotland – a subtle fusion of East and West. Goa’s tropical climate accelerates maturation, giving the whisky depth and character in record time.🥃 Flavour profiles for the curious connoisseur Paul John is known for expressions like Brilliance, Edited, and Bold, as well as their Select Cask series – including unique Single Cask releases like #692. These whiskies are often bottled at high strength, non-chill filtered, and naturally coloured. It’s all about authenticity and bold experiences.🏆 A rising star in Indian whisky With the distillery open for tours and tastings, Paul John has drawn whisky lovers from around the globe. Not just as an exotic alternative – but as a serious contender in the premium segment.🎧 Tune in – and hear the story behind the spirit In today’s episode, we explore Paul John's journey, their philosophy around flavour and terroir, and what makes Indian whisky so exciting.
