Spirits Launch | Ambrosia India

Tilaknagar Industries Ltd. (TI), in collaboration with Fairmac Shipstores Pvt. Ltd., has launched its flagship Mansion House Brandy alongside Monarch Legacy Edition, the first release under the company’s new luxury vertical, House of TI, at Hyderabad Duty Free. Travellers at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport can now experience the full spectrum of Indian brandy, from the award-winning Mansion House Brandy to the luxury offering, Monarch- 100% Pure Grape Brandy Legacy Edition.

Amit Dahanukar, Chairman & Managing Director of Tilaknagar Industries said “It’s exciting to expand our presence further in the travel retail sector, which is such an important space for showcasing Indian spirits on a global stage. Hyderabad Duty Free is a significant expansion in this, as it serves as a gateway for both Indian and international travellers. With Mansion House, we are bringing a trusted favourite, and with Monarch Legacy Edition, we are introducing a new luxury take on Indian brandy. Together, they highlight where the category has been and where it is headed.”

Sanaya Dahanukar – Marketing Manager of Tilaknagar Industries Ltd., commented, “Brandy has always enjoyed a strong following in Southern India, with nearly 98% of the brandy consumption concentrated within the region, and Hyderabad is an important gateway for that audience. At Duty Free, we are able to offer travellers both sides of the brandy story — the nostalgia of Mansion House and the sophistication of Monarch Legacy Edition.”

Juniper Bomb, first created in 2020 when a power outage extended a batch of Greater Than’s botanical soak from 10 to nearly 36 hours, the resulting gin was unexpectedly bold, unapologetically juniper-forward, and instantly loved. Originally released as a limited edition, it has found a cult following among purists and has now joined Nao Spirits & Beverages’ permanent lineup. Compared to Greater Than, Juniper Bomb triples the juniper load, delivering a classic London Dry
style gin that is electric—like biting straight into a plump Juniper Berry. It’s bold and complex at first, with a finish of ripe lychees. Its gin designed for those who like their spirit loud and proud; best had with lots of ice and tonic, and no additional garnish, what the team calls ‘Make It Naked’. Commenting on the launch, Anand Virmani, Co-Founder & Master Distiller, Nao Spirits, said, “Juniper Bomb wasn’t part of the plan. It was literally born out of a mistake—but the kind you want to make twice. It packs a punch—just like the juniper that defines it. We like to think of it as a gin with the
volume turned all the way up.”
