Old Monk4.7(100 reviews)
A wonderfully crisp and smooth white rum from Mohan Meakin, carefully crafted as a clean, versatile spirit perfect for tropical cocktails and refreshing summer mixes. Distinct from the traditional heavy dark expressions, it is distilled for absolute clarity and lightness, showing delicate sweet cane sugar, refreshing citrus peel, and faint coconut notes. Available in 180ml (Nip), 375ml (Pint), and 750ml (Quart) sizes, it serves as the ultimate mixology base.

Origin: India
India
The subcontinent has evolved into a global powerhouse of premium spirits, blending ancient distillation heritage with state-of-the-art master craftsmanship. From high-altitude Himalayan spring waters to coastal barrels in Goa, India's intense tropical climate accelerates oak extraction and barrel aging dynamically. This creates bold, robustly complex, and deeply spiced spirits with rich profiles in a fraction of the time required in cooler European climates.

Taste: 5/5Value: 5/5
“Absolutely spectacular! Visited a local outlet in Andheri and picked up Old Monk White Rum. At ₹1,250 in Mumbai, this represents incredible value. The notes of Crisp Cane Sugar and Light Citrus pair phenomenally well with home-cooked Mutton Kheema Pav. Highly recommended!”

“A highly sophisticated Dark Rum by Old Monk. Wonderfully smooth on the throat with subtle hints of Crisp Cane Sugar and Faint Coconut. Serving this neat during a family gathering in Bandra was a major hit, especially alongside local Kheema Pav!”

“I'm thoroughly impressed by Old Monk's execution here. The palate is extremely rich with a refined finish highlighting Light Citrus. At the Mumbai price of ₹1,250, it's easily one of the best choices in its segment paired with Baked Sandesh.”
