An Indian whisky has been crowned the world's best whisky. The Indri Diwali Collector's Edition 2023 has been awarded as the best whisky in the world at the Whiskies of the World Awards.
This accolade marks a milestone in the global recognition of Indian whiskies, with the Indri Diwali Collector's Edition 2023 outshining hundreds of renowned brands from around the world. The Indian single malt beat international brands, including scotch, bourbon, Canadian, Australian, and British single malts.
The Indri Diwali Collector's Edition 2023 is a product of Piccadilly Distilleries, a company that has consistently demonstrated its commitment to quality and innovation in the whisky industry. It was awarded the 'Double Gold Best In Show'.
The award-winning whisky is crafted in the Himalayan foothills using six-row barley handpicked in Rajasthan and fresh glacier water from the Yamuna River. It is then aged in Pedro Ximenez Sherry Casks, which imparts a dark amber hue and sweet, currant-like notes to the whisky.
The Whiskies of the World Awards is an annual event that brings together some of the most influential tastemakers in the beverage industry. Over 100 varieties of whiskies are blind-tasted and rated on a 100-point basis, focusing on aromatics, flavour and finish.
