Taste: 5/5Value: 5/5
“Absolutely spectacular! Visited a local outlet in Vasant Kunj and picked up Woodburns Contemporary Indian Whisky. At ₹1,850 in Delhi, this represents incredible value. The notes of Hand-Charred Oak Smoke and Rich Dark Chocolate pair phenomenally well with home-cooked Butter Chicken. Highly recommended!”

Taste: 4/5Value: 5/5
“A highly sophisticated Bourbon Whiskey by Woodburns. Wonderfully smooth on the throat with subtle hints of Hand-Charred Oak Smoke and Sweet Toasted Caramel. Serving this neat during a family gathering in Connaught Place was a major hit, especially alongside local Chicken Seekh Kebab!”
