New Indri 11 Year Old Single Malt Sets Premium Benchmark for Indian Whiskies
Piccadily Agro Industries Ltd. has launched a landmark expression for Indian whisky lovers and collectors alike—the Indri Founder’s Reserve 11 Year Old Single Malt, a limited-edition release that celebrates legacy, craftsmanship, and global ambition.
A Tribute to the Visionary Behind Piccadily
This exclusive release pays homage to Pt. Kidar Nath Sharma, the founder who transformed a humble family business into the multifaceted Piccadily Group. The Founder’s Reserve embodies his passion for excellence with every sip.
Matured to Perfection
Aged for 11 years in ex-Bordeaux red wine casks, this single malt has been developed under the unique climatic conditions of Indri, Haryana—where summer temperatures soar to 50°C and winters drop sharply, creating an accelerated maturation process that infuses the whisky with rare depth and complexity.
Limited Release, Global Appeal
With just 1,100 bottles released globally—550 allocated to India and the rest to select international markets—this bottling is a collector’s gem. It is bottled at a bold 50% ABV for India and an even stronger 58.5% ABV for export markets, reflecting the brand’s confidence and global aspirations.
