Liquor companies may ask FSSAI for standard for desi single malt – Times of India

NEW DELHI: Homegrown Indian liquor makers are mulling approaching food & beverages regulator FSSAI for a separate standard for the Indian single malt whisky that is rapidly scaling with the ongoing trend of premiumisation and has won several prestigious international awards. This will help maintain the reputation of Indian single malt whisky – now exported to 60 countries – and Indian producers are discussing the move, according to Confederation of Indian Alcoholic Beverage Companies.
