In an impressive showing at the Spirtz international competition, 'Kadamba Indian single-malt whisky' has secured a Gold medal for its exceptional liquid tasting, scoring a remarkable 98%. Additionally, its packaging earned a Silver medal with a 94.51% rating for its diamond-cut decanter design.

Kadamba single-malt is crafted as a homage to Goa's 'Kadamba' dynasty, blending tradition with modern perfection. The whisky stands out for its classic, earthy peat notes, complemented by a touch of salty Goan ocean breeze, offering a unique and harmonious flavour profile.

India’s luxury spirits conglomerate, Cheers group, produces this exquisite single malt. Known for its quality whiskies, Cheers group has made Kadamba single-malt a symbol of their commitment to excellence.

Kadamba is praised for its complex, oaky scent, and a palate rich in peaty and sherry trifle notes. This whisky is distinguished by its surprising and long-lasting finish, creating a memorable experience for whisky enthusiasts.

Distilled at Cheers group's esteemed North Goa facility, Kadamba single-malt is one of the world's few triple-cask matured whiskies and a symbol of royalty.

Under Dr. Mohan Krishna's guidance, Cheers group has produced internationally acclaimed single malts. Ashwin Balivada, CEO of Cheers group, highlighted Kadamba's unique peated flavour, while Dr. Divya Balivada, Global Creative Director, emphasised its smooth, peaty finish.

Cheers group's foray into single malts positions India alongside long-time Scottish dominators in this space. 'Kadamba' is a vintage single malt released from exceptional casks, contributing to India's rising prominence in the global whisky market.
