India’s First Craft Gin ‘Greater Than’ Expands Global Reach, Now Available In 17 Indian Cities And 12 Countries 

Nao Spirits & Beverages, recognized as a pioneer in India's craft spirits movement, has announced the expanded availability of Greater Than, India’s first craft London Dry Gin. Known for its citrus-forward, versatile, and balanced flavor profile, Greater Than is now available in 17 cities across India and in 12 international markets. Here’s a closer look at how the brand is strengthening its presence both domestically and globally.

India’s First Craft Gin ‘Greater Than’ Expands Global Reach

Before 2017, there was no brand that produced Indian Craft Gin. Greater Than walked into the market in 2017 with a clean, juniper-forward, and easy-to-work-with profile. The brand positioned itself in such a way that today it is both a home essential and a bartender’s preferred choice. 

This Indian gin is crafted with unique botanicals such as fennel, ginger, lemongrass, and coriander seeds, setting it apart from others. As a result, it does not need to exoticize or imitate its global counterparts, allowing it to carve its own niche in the international market.

Over the years, the brand has built a reputation for quality on a global scale, reaching countries including Italy, the United Arab Emirates, Thailand, and Singapore.

Greater Than has also earned many international accolades and is making India proud on the global stage. This includes recognition from the World Gin Awards and The Gin Guide. It has also earned a rank among “The top 8 Gin Distilleries of the World for 2025.” 

A Gap Identification That Took Indian Gin Overseas

Anand Virmani, Co-founder of Nao Spirits, mentioned that the team noticed a gap in the Indian market. The gap was that there were no Indian craft gins that bartenders could work with. That's why they launched Greater Than in 2017. 

Today, as the brand expands in both Indian and International markets, Anand is proud to see how far Indian gin has come. From army canteens across India, a neighbourhood bar in Goa to a cocktail bar in Singapore or on a backbar in the United Kingdom, Greater Than is everywhere.

And it hasn’t stayed still. Along the way, Greater Than has used its core recipe as a playground for experimentation. What started as one gin slowly turned into a series of offshoots:  

• Juniper Bomb (2020): Born out of an over-soaked botanical batch that made a re-entrance last year and is now part of the main portfolio.  
• No Sleep (2021): India’s first coffee-infused gin.  
• Broken Bat (2022): A gin aged with toasted Kashmir willow cricket bats.  
• Punk Gin (2024): A gin made with real Mahabaleshwar strawberries.

Summing Up

Greater Than has established itself in both Indian and International markets with its consistent quality and taste. It not only launched an Indian craft gin in the market but has also taken it to new heights, making every Indian proud of it.
