It’s that time of the year again when food, festivities and bonhomie triangulate the fun frame. Stir in some free-spirited cheer and you have yourself a treat. Viewed through the prism of the glass, the alco-bev industry has undergone something of a transformation with the post-pandemic socialising scenario split between diversified at-home drinking and an increased appreciation for high-quality and premium alcohol brands. Although the available choices are as expansive as they are exciting, these are the spirits that made it to our gifting guide.
Longitude 77
The most recent of spirit launches this year, Seagram’s Longitude 77 is a freespirited Indian single malt whisky, boasting a rich and woody taste with a spicy finish and offers a fruity flavour with hints of toffee and peat smoke. This new-age expression of an Indian single malt is best paired with dry fruits and walnuts. As the name suggests, Longitude 77 is named after the meridian line that passes through the centre of the country, marking India’s spot on the globe.
USP A new launch and an aged expression of a luxury Indian Single Malt
Price ₹5,500
