There is this group called Malt Maniacs, and it has as its only Indian member, Krishna Nukala, my new guru. If you have to follow your passion, do so in style, is a lesson I learnt from him the other day, when he gave us a fascinating insight into the art of appreciating Single Malts from around the world (Taiwanese and Japanese included!). Starting with lighter-flavoured sherry-cask ones (Glenfarclas 21 year-old), we moved towards some known and some unknown (to me, not him) names that went towards the peaty, topping off with some Ardbeg that he got in an auction. A rare version of Amrut and a Paul John, both Indian, were represented, and made me proud. Some glimpses into the tasting - heady stuff!
I won't forget this evening in a hurry!
He launches into the fascinating stories, and a taste of the best.
