GianChand Whisky
This rare spirit is a tribute to a remarkable personality – our founder Dewan Gian Chand. Six decades ago he pioneered and perfected the craft of creating the finest brews and malts in India. It took us nearly 60 years to create a singular whisky that is marvellous enough to grace his name. His legacy lives on in every batch of this bottled flawlessness.
IT IS A LOVE LETTER
FROM AN EXOTIC LAND.
Jammu is a land steeped in history, rich in culture and heritage and blessed with a unique geography. Situated in the lap of the Himalayas, its water and weather have played an essential role in creating the exceptional character of GianChand Single Malt Whisky.
