Indian Whiskey!
In the grand tapestry of the whisky world, one name now shines the brightest – ‘Indri.’ This Indian Single Malt Whisky, born from the skilled hands at the Piccadily distillery in Indri, Haryana, nestled near the Himalayan foothills, has achieved the pinnacle of recognition by being awarded the title of the best whisky in the world at the illustrious 2023 Whiskies of the World Awards.
What sets Indri apart from the rest is its unique approach to maturation. This Indian gem fearlessly embraces the concept of the three-wood expression, aging gracefully in ex-bourbon, ex-French wine, and PX Sherry casks, each contributing its own distinctive character to the final masterpiece. This intricate marriage of wood and spirit results in a symphony of flavors that dance on the palate, a true embodiment of craftsmanship.
The very name ‘Indri’ pays homage to the senses invoked during the whisky-making process at the distillery. From the moment the grain is selected to the final drop in the bottle, every step is a sensory journey, and ‘Indri’ captures this essence beautifully.
