A Long-Standing Tradition:

Radico Khaitan Limited, previously known as Rampur Distillery Company, has been around since 1943 and is one of the oldest and largest producers of Indian Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL). By introducing its own brands in 1998, such as the popular 8PM Whisky, Radico Khaitan has built a wide range of brands, making it a leader in the industry.

Recognition Around the World:

Outside India, Radico Khaitan is a major exporter of alcoholic beverages, with its brands being sold in over 102 countries. This global presence shows the company's commitment to providing top-quality spirits that are loved by people all over the world.

To celebrate Rampur Distillery's 75th anniversary, Radico Khaitan launched a special version of Rampur Indian single malt whisky worldwide. Crafted with great care, Rampur Signature Reserve is aged in American Standard Oak Barrels, braving the varied climates of India. It's one of the oldest malts in India.

The company selected four special casks, which were then moved to selected PX Sherry Butts from Jerez, Spain, for the final ageing phase. Each bottle in this limited edition has its own number and bears the signatures of Dr. Lalit Khaitan, Chairman, and the Rampur Master Maker, making it unique and exclusive.

By presenting Rampur Signature Reserve as the top luxury whisky in India, Radico Khaitan continues to set high standards of craftsmanship and excellence in the spirits industry.

Which Indian whisky awarded the world's best single malt?

In 2023, Indri Whisky, a smooth and smoky single malt from India, received the prestigious Best in Show, Double Gold award at the Whiskies of the World Awards. This accolade, beating numerous Scotches, Bourbons, and other top malts, solidifies its status as a standout in the industry. Produced by Piccadilly Distilleries, this peated whisky is matured in wine casks for an extended period, resulting in a flavour profile rich with notes of chocolate, fruit, and nuts.

What sets Indri Whisky apart is its unique identity in a market dominated by American bourbons and Scottish single malts. Proudly homegrown, Piccadilly Distilleries recently introduced the Diwali Collector's Edition 2023, further cementing its place in the hearts of whisky enthusiasts. Known for its commitment to excellence, from cask to bottle, the brand reflects India's growing preference for smoky and oaky flavours, establishing itself as one of the foremost names in the industry.

Recent reports indicate that Indri Whisky is not only receiving accolades but also experiencing rapid growth. Within just two years of its launch, the brand surpassed the 1 lakh mark in sales and has seen a remarkable 500% increase in business, making it the fastest-growing single malt whisky in the world.
