Indri Diwali Collector's Edition 2026 is a remarkable selection that features three limited and characterful bottles, including two exquisite single malts and a high-strength Indian gin. Available at a special combined price, this collection is an excellent choice for those who appreciate fine spirits.
Indri Diwali Collector's Edition 2026 – Ruby Port Cask
One of the standout bottles in this edition is the Indri's Diwali Collector's Edition, a highly anticipated release crafted by Piccadily in Indri, Haryana, nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas. Made from indigenous six-row Indian barley, the 2026 edition boasts maturation in ruby port casks. Enthusiasts can expect a delightful olfactory experience with hints of sea air, subtle peat, and burnt sugar on the nose. The palate reveals a full-bodied, layered symphony of spices, culminating in a long, well-balanced finish. Notably, only 180 bottles of this exceptional single malt have been allocated to the UK, making it a precious addition to any collection.
The English VE Day 80th Anniversary
The second gem in the bundle is a commemorative single malt from The English Distillery in Norfolk. This release is particularly special as it marks the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day, celebrated on 8 May 1945. Crafted in collaboration with the veterans' charity Walking With The Wounded, it was matured in a unique blend of ex-bourbon and virgin oak casks, resulting in an enticing profile. Each bottle is hand-bottled into a keepsake decanter, limited to just 3,000 bottles. Tasting notes include sweet toffee, ripe banana, and burnt sugar, leading into delightful tropical fruit, vanilla sponge, and a hint of pepper paired with rich honeycomb.
Jin Jiji High Proof
Finally, the collection is completed by the Jin Jiji High Proof, an extraordinary India Dry Gin that celebrates the flora of the region. Crafted from wild-foraged Himalayan juniper and infused with tulsi (holy basil), black tea, coriander seed, angelica, chamomile, and cashew nut, this gin offers a silky texture. The high-proof variant elevates the floral notes while reducing sweetness, presenting bright lime oil and green herbal bitterness. It’s robust enough for cocktails yet remarkably smooth.
