This isn't just a sampler; it’s an invitation into one of Asia’s rising whisky houses, a dram that says more in one sip than many do in a full glass.

Omar Single Malt Whisky Miniature

Tasting Profile:
Nose: Gentle waves of vanilla, malted grain, and tropical fruit, like walking through a fruit orchard right after a rain.
Palate: Smooth and creamy with notes of honey, poached pear, and toasted barley. There’s a soft oakiness beneath the surface, and just enough spice to make it sing.
Finish: Light yet satisfying. A mellow sweetness fades into subtle oak and a final whisper of dried mango.

Production Details:
