Rampur Double Cask
Rampur distillery is located in the Uttar Pradesh region of India and is owned by Radico Khaitan. While technically distilling spirits since 1943, by the turn of the century Rampur was launching brands under it’s own name for the domestic market and, increasingly, for international ones. The Rampur Double Cask is double distilled from six-row barley and matured using both American ex-bourbon and European ex-sherry casks.
Rampur Asāva
Rampur distillery was founded in 1943 in the Indian city of Rampur, making it the oldest distillery in India and also part of the Radico Khaitan liquor conglomerate. The company has a portfolio producing spirits for the Indian domestic market, the international market, and the Indian military market, along with neutral spirit for use in a variety of commercial products. They also own their own bottling plant, enabling them to incorporate much of the production process. Rampur is part of the international portfolio. Situated at the base of the Himalayas, the location and elevation give it greater climate variance not seen elsewhere in India. The Rampur Asāva are aged for a time in ex-bourbon casks before being transferred to casks formerly containing cabernet sauvignon wine from India. This expression was first released in October 2020.
