Tilaknagar Industries launches Seven Islands, expands into premium whisky market

Tilaknagar Industries Ltd. announced its entry into the premium whisky category with the launch of Seven Islands Pure Malt Whisky on November 20, 2025. This move establishes whisky as a second major growth pillar for Tilaknagar Industries, complementing its long-standing leadership in brandy and following the acquisition announcement of Imperial Blue. Seven Islands is an Indo-Scottish 100% Pure Malt Whisky, blending four single malts from India and Scotland.

The new pure malt whisky combines Indian malts from the Himalayan foothills and Vindhyan ranges with Scottish malts from Speyside and the Lowlands. This dual-climate approach aims to create a distinct profile not achievable with single-region malts. Seven Islands is priced at INR 5,200 (Maharashtra) for a 750 ml bottle, with an ABV of 42.8%.

This expansion capitalizes on India's whisky market, which accounts for approximately 66% of total spirits consumption in 2024. Indian whisky volumes grew 7% year-on-year in H1 2025, surpassing 130 million cases and demonstrating continued premiumization. Tilaknagar Industries sees this as a timely growth avenue, leveraging its scale and expertise in the spirits market.
