We have recently started our division called Luxury Malts & Spirits Division, which is focussing on our Premium brands. This division is responsible for making our premium brands available in India.

We are glad to inform you that our Amrut’s Amalgam Malt Whisky has made its mark in India.

It’s well accepted in Karnataka, Goa, Telangana, Maharashtra, Chattisgarh, Delhi, Chandigarh etc. It’s acceptance amongst our esteemed armed forces through CSD is also satisfying.

Glad to inform that our latest offering is our Amrut’s Amalgam Peated - which has also been. well received by the discerning consumers who have ‘ graduated ‘ to the acquired taste of peat. The brand is gaining momentum state after state.
