Seven Islands Vintage, the first Indian-owned premium single malt Scotch whisky, has received international recognition by being awarded the prestigious Silver Outstanding Award 2013 in the Spirits Category of the international Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC).
The award comes in 15 months since the launch of this premium Speyside whisky. Judges at the IWSC, one of the world’s most respected spirits competition in its 44th year and one that has a rigorous two-stage judging process that involves blind tasting and detailed technical analysis, described Seven Islands Vintage as having a “long, fruity finish.” Their tasting notes for this whisky were: “Fairly complex nose with vanilla, sweet mandarin, honey and butterscotch. Rich and full in the mouth where everything the nose suggested appears as flavours. Ripe apples and pears add to the mix with concentrated vanilla and butterscotch.”
