The Paul John Classic Select Cask is an unpeated Indian single malt whisky, meticulously crafted by John Distilleries in Goa. Bottled at a robust 55.2% ABV and non-chill filtered, this expression showcases the rich complexity and depth achievable through maturation in ex-bourbon barrels within a tropical climate.
