India is well on its way to becoming the next whisky superpower. Going by recent tallies, Indian whisky has been penetrating the global market shelves and bagging ‘best whisky’ awards at high-stakes competitions.
These homegrown malts and blends hold a special place within India as well. At one point in history, the spirit was reserved for the elite, which made whisky the most expensive alcohol to be sampled. However, with time, a host of Indian brands cropped up in the market and created a number of delicious but affordable variants.
