The recently launched Revelry Distillery, a craft-driven spirits maker in Sattari, has honoured the depth, origin and detail of the North Goan terroir with the debut of Vanaha, a sipping gin that seamlessly combines bold character with nuanced depth and forest-born elegance.

Vanaha is a 100 % natural gin with no artificial flavours and holding the rhythm of the forest. It features a rare blend of 24 hand-picked botanicals, including Deodar wood, patchouli, cacao nibs, Palash flowers, pine tips, Assam lemons, wild berries, Sikkim Mandarin, orris and angelica roots, and juniper berries.

The cold vacuum distillation results in a complex, smooth and layered gin with floral, earthy, woody and subtly spiced notes. It is best enjoyed as a neat pour with ice or in cocktails, offering a versatile experience for connoisseurs who value ritual, not rush.

Priced at ₹2,400 for a 750-ml bottle (at 42.8% ABV) in Goa, Vanaha is presented in exquisitely crafted glass bottles, each adorned with illustrated labels that reflect the spirit’s profound connection to nature. The gin will gradually roll out across key metro markets, beginning with Karnataka.

The distillery, the baby of serial entrepreneurs Vaniitha and Navvin Jaiin, is equipped with cutting-edge infrastructure, including a dedicated R&D lab and a meticulous spirits making system. It houses a five-step process for the creation of its artisanal gin: botanical maceration, customised Hagyo pot still from Hungary, vapour infusion, cold vacuum distillation and staging.
