Press Release
Indian Luxury Whisky Brands Land in the Home of Scotch: Radico Khaitan First
Indian Spirits Company Across Four Major UK Airports
Rampur and Sangam enter Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester and Birmingham, marking a significant
milestone in the global expansion of Indian spirits
New Delhi, September 28, 2026: Radico Khaitan Limited, one of India's leading spirits companies, is
taking its portfolio of Indian luxury spirits to four major UK airports, becoming the first Indian spirit
brands to be available across these airports' duty-free shops. It marks a significant step in its Global
Travel Retail (GTR) expansion strategy. The Company’s premium brands, including Rampur Indian
Single Malt Double Cask, Rampur Asava, Rampur Barrel Blush and Sangam World Malt, now available
to international travellers at Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester and Birmingham airports.
Radico Khaitan’s global travel retail expansion comes against the backdrop of strong momentum in
its premium and luxury portfolio. Its Prestige & Above portfolio contributed 70.3% of IMFL value in
FY26, reflecting the growing importance of premiumisation to the company’s business.
Commenting on the development, Abhishek Khaitan, Managing Director, Radico Khaitan, said “Our
international ambition is not simply about increasing the number of airports in which we operate. It is
about building meaningful brand presence and ensuring that Indian spirits are experienced in the right
environments, by consumers who appreciate provenance, craftsmanship and distinctive character.
This entry is an important milestone in our journey to take Indian luxury to the world. Global Travel
Retail gives us the opportunity to connect with consumers from different parts of the world and
showcase the depth, diversity and evolving quality of Indian spirits.”
These four airports together handled over 170 million passengers in 2025. Heathrow, Europe's busiest
airport, recorded approximately 84.5 million passengers, while Gatwick, Manchester and Birmingham
handled approximately 42.8 million, 32.1 million and 13.7 million passengers, respectively. Together,
these airports represent a substantial opportunity to increase the visibility and accessibility of Indian
luxury spirits in global travel retail.
Sanjeev Banga, President – International Business, Radico Khaitan, added “There is a certain
charm in taking Indian whisky to the home of Scotch whisky. We are not asking the world to choose
between Scotch and Indian whisky. We are simply making sure that Indian whisky gets a seat at the
table, and perhaps a place on the airport shelf as well. This is an exciting opportunity to show travellers
that the world of whisky has room for more than one accent, and this time, the accent is unmistakably
Indian.”
The portfolio entering the UK airport network reflects Radico Khaitan’s focus on combining Indian
provenance with global standards of craftsmanship. Rampur Indian Single Malt, crafted at the Rampur
Distillery established in 1943, draws on the distinctive climate of the Himalayan foothills. The portfolio
includes expressions such as Double Cask, Asava and Barrel Blush, each offering a different
interpretation of Indian single malt whisky. Sangam World Malt further strengthens the Company’s
premium whisky offering, contributing to Radico Khaitan’s broader strategy of building a diversified
portfolio of Indian luxury spirits for international consumers.
The expansion marks a landmark giant step in Radico Khaitan’s long-term international growth
strategy, with Global Travel Retail expected to play an increasingly important role in strengthening
brand visibility, encouraging trial and building recognition for Indian spirits among global travellers.
