Diageo launches Godawan artisanal single malt

Godawan, the Great Indian Bustard, is a regal, majestic avian, once found all over India, but now nearing extinction, and finds its last refuge in Rajasthan. Godawan, Diageo India’s artisanal single malt whiskey, is crafted in, its provenance inspired by, and dedicated wholeheartedly to Rajasthani ethos – of beauty in scarcity and sustainability.

Diageo’s unique whisky-making process involves slow-trickle distillation from locally sourced six-row barley, maturing at over 38°C, and finishing in special casks selectively curated with Indian botanicals(!)

This helps create a whiskey with an incredible depth of flavour, and a rich and complex character. It is packaged in 700-ml bottles at 46% ABV.
