WhiskyCast Episode 155: July 27, 2008

b'It may be seen \\nas a sacrilege in Scotland, but imagine a single malt whisky from India that can \\ncompete with the best of Scotland\'s malts in many ways. That\'s the case with \\nAmrut\'s single malts, which draw their water from the snow melt of the Himalayas \\nand their barley from local farmers in northern India -- and their intense \\nmaturation from the heat of Bangalore. Askok Chokalingam of Amrut gives us the \\ndetails, and Thierry Benitah of La Maison du Whisky previews September\'s Whisky \\nLive Paris. In the news, an update on the reopening of Braeval, more charity \\nwhiskies for WhiskyFest San Francisco, and the "Whisky Bus" hits Glasgow.
