Amrut Distilleries and Bungalow proudly announce the launch of Amrut x Bungalow Blended Whisky, marking a unique partnership which reflects a shared culinary vision and a commitment to enriched guest experiences. At Amrut, we have always believed that the finest expressions emerge when passion meets purpose, and when heritage converges with innovation. This collaboration with Bungalow represents a significant milestone in our journey – an opportunity to join hands with kindred spirits who share our unwavering commitment to authenticity, quality, and the celebration of Indian craft at its finest.
For decades, we have dedicated ourselves to pushing the boundaries of whisky making, demonstrating to the world that Indian single malts can not only compete on the global stage but lead it. Our approach has always been rooted in respect for tradition while fearlessly exploring new territories and challenging conventions. This specially crafted whisky for Bungalow embodies that very philosophy – it is a testament to our versatility, our deep understanding of flavour profiles, and our ability to create expressions that complement and elevate unique experiences.
We see this partnership as more than a commercial collaboration. It is a meeting of creative minds, a dialogue between two pioneering Indian brands that refuse to be defined by limitations. This release reflects our belief that great whisky should be part of life’s memorable moments, whether savoured neat or thoughtfully integrated into exceptional culinary experiences. At Amrut, we take immense pride in being part of Bungalow’s narrative, contributing to their efforts to redefine contemporary Indian dining and hospitality. This collaboration adds a new chapter to our story – one that showcases our commitment to innovation, our respect for craftsmanship, and our dedication to putting Indian excellence on the world map, one exceptional expression at a time.
At Amrut, we are deeply intentional about the partnerships we pursue — and Bungalow stood out as a natural ally. In just a short span, Bungalow has become one of New York’s most sought-after dining destinations, known for its rare ability to balance familiarity with finesse. Its elusive charm lies in how it transforms Indian culinary heritage into an elevated, global experience — warm yet refined, nostalgic yet forward-looking. In Bungalow, we found a partner that mirrors our own pursuit of distinction: rooted in authenticity, defined by excellence, and admired for crafting moments that linger well beyond the last sip or bite.
Amrut has built a formidable presence in the United States over the years, earning admiration from whisky connoisseurs and critics alike for introducing the world to the depth and complexity of Indian single malts. New York City, in particular, has been a cornerstone of our international journey — home to a discerning audience that has embraced our craft with remarkable enthusiasm. The liquid was crafted for the cosmopolitan New Yorker and the global traveller who finds themselves in the city — someone who wouldn’t miss the chance to indulge in an unforgettable meal at Bungalow, where this very whisky is featured in their signature Paan Old Fashioned cocktail.
