Oaksmith Gold Whisky
Oaksmith4.7(1,500 reviews)
Oaksmith Gold Whisky is the flagship, premium expression in the Oaksmith portfolio, crafted by Suntory's legendary Chief Blender Shinji Fukuyo. Blending mature imported Speyside Scotch malts and aged Kentucky straight bourbon with ultra-pure Indian grain spirits, it represents the absolute peak of modern blending innovation. Matured for longer in hand-selected oak casks, Oaksmith Gold delivers a deeper, richer flavor profile compared to the International edition. Pours a warm golden-amber color with a sweet, complex bouquet of rich honey, dried stone fruits, creamy butterscotch, and a delicate hint of peat smoke. On the palate, it is exceptionally velvety and smooth, concluding with a long, satisfying woody finish with low throat burn at 42.8% ABV.

This creates bold, robustly complex, and deeply spiced spirits with rich profiles in a fraction of the time required in cooler European climates.

Taste: 5/5Value: 5/5
“Absolutely spectacular! Visited a local outlet in Vasant Kunj and picked up Oaksmith Gold Whisky. At ₹840 in Delhi, this represents incredible value. The notes of Sweet wild honey and Rich butterscotch and caramel pair phenomenally well with home-cooked Butter Chicken. Highly recommended!”
