Leave a reply

KOMOS, an expression of artisanal tequila, has recently arrived in Mumbai following successful launches across Delhi, Haryana, and Goa. Blending the deep-rooted heritage of Mexican tequila-making with the sophistication of European winemaking, KOMOS is a celebration of luxury, culture, and craftsmanship.

Using traditional tequila-making techniques, the spirit is aged in French oak barrels and presented in hand-crafted ceramic decanters that are also collectible. The result is a tequila that is bold yet balanced, refined yet expressive. From the crystalline elegance of the Añejo Cristalino to the rosé-hued charm of the Reposado Rosa, the rich depth of the Añejo Reserva, and the extraordinary Extra Añejo—the first and only tequila to receive a perfect 100-point score from The Tasting Panel Magazine, KOMOS redefines what tequila can be.

KOMOS hosted an exclusive launch party at Bar Paradox, Mumbai, where the city’s most discerning tastemakers and high net worth individuals came together for an evening of immersive tasting. The evening featured curated KOMOS cocktails.

Prasun Chawla, Founder of Chason Beverages, said, “KOMOS represents a new frontier of luxury spirits in India. Bombay has long been a hub for elevated taste, and we’re excited to introduce a tequila that speaks to its refined energy and appreciation for craft.”

Ankur Chawla, Brand Manager of KOMOS, added, “Our success in Delhi, Goa, and Gurgaon has laid the foundation for this moment. Bombay is a natural next step. The city’s enthusiasm for premium spirits and curated experiences makes it an ideal home for KOMOS.”

KOMOS is now available at select premium retail outlets in Mumbai, including Variety Wine in

Juhu, Baba Wines in Matunga, World of Wines, Colaba and the Hops Cork chain of liquor

Stores. As KOMOS enters Bombay’s elite nightlife and hospitality circuit, it will do so with thoughtfully curated events, tasting rituals, and intimate gatherings, inviting the city’s connoisseurs to savour tequila.

Volcan de mi Tierra, the ultra-premium tequila brand by Louis Vuitton-Moët-Hennessy is launching its portfolio in India. Volcan de mi Tierra brings the finest tequila offerings – Blanco, Reposado, Cristalino and the extraordinary Volcan X.A, to Indian consumers.  

Rooted in over 300 years of heritage and passion, Volcan de mi Tierra draws on the time-honoured traditions of the Gallardo family, whose roots in the tequila-making process trace back to 1774 at the famed Hacienda La Gavilana in Jalisco, Mexico. In partnership with Moët Hennessy, the Gallardos’ mastery in tequila craftsmanship is combined with Moët Hennessy’s global savoir-faire, resulting in a product that celebrates the art of tequila making, authenticity, and innovation in every sip.

Volcan is associated with NOM 1523, a prestigious distinction in the tequila industry. With over 2,200 tequila brands made from 169 distilleries in Mexico, Volcan stands out as one of only five additive-free single nom distilleries which are 100% additive free in the world highlighting commitment to the highest standards of quality and purity. Driven by a passion to craft the best of what tequila can offer, Volcan de mi Tierra uses the finest 100% Blue Weber Agave. Its all-natural flavour and colour result from Volcan’s expertise in blending and aging. Each bottle is hand painted numbered and sealed reflecting exceptional craftsmanship. Its handcrafted field to bottle.

 The Volcan portfolio honours Mexico’s terroir, with each expression showcasing the spirit of Jalisco capturing the essence and energy of the volcano’s raw natural power and allows different tequila profiles to come together in perfect harmony.

Volcan Blanco: A pure expression of 100% Blue Agave, this perfectly balanced tequila offers subtle sweetness and natural flavours of agave with delicate hints of grapefruit, a touch of black pepper spice resulting in a well-balanced finish. 

Volcan Reposado: Aged in American and European oak barrels, the dual aging process brings out the intricate complexity and refined finesse of our carefully selected agave, terroir and wood. Soft with a rich mouthful. Balanced and smooth.
