Winter is…here! It’s the perfect time to unwind and celebrate with friends and family. While 2024 has already seen some remarkable spirit launches across categories, the year isn’t over yet. To cap off this stellar season for India’s alco-bev scene, we have one last special launch that promises to leave a mark. Brandy is the drink of winter, but have you experienced what true luxury brandy tastes like? As the second most consumed spirit in India, brandy often goes unnoticed, quietly flying under the radar. But now, there’s a royal new entry into the category. India’s fastest-growing IMFL company is shaking things up with the Monarch Legacy Edition, ushering in a new wave of sophistication and flavor to the world of brandy.
Tilaknagar Industries Ltd. (TI), the creator of India’s top selling brandy Mansion House, has unveiled Monarch Legacy Edition, its first luxury brandy. This is the world’s only 100% pure grape brandy that blends French grape spirits aged up to eight years with Indian grape spirits from Maharashtra’s Sahyadri region. The liquid is distilled in coal-fired copper pot stills, a hallmark of French Cognac-making, resulting in a rich, velvety spirit with layers of dried fruits, spice, and a distinct fruity depth.
Its royal allure extends beyond the liquid. Housed in a decanter-style bottle with intricate ridges and a golden shield-shaped metallic label (one of the only metallic labels in India’s spirits industry), the packaging draws inspiration from ancient royalty. Perfect for neat pours, Monarch also elevates classic cocktails like Negronis or even Espresso Martinis. With Monarch, TI is redefining brandy’s image, bringing sophistication and innovation to a beloved spirit category.
