Six Brothers Mahura
The first on our list of spirits under INR 3000 is the Six Brothers Mahura. It is proudly the world’s first luxury Mahura spirit that holds more than 100 years of legacy. The drink pays homage to the Mahua or Mahura drink made in India’s tribal communities. Mahura has been a staple in these communities for centuries, however, the British categorized it as ‘country liquor’ to sideline indigenous alcoholic beverages. Recently, the traditional beverage was honored with the title of ‘heritage liquor’, an attempt to revive the drink’s history.
The Six Brothers Mahura is double-distilled in copper pot stills and platinum-filtered for the best quality. With sweet, earthy notes of dried fruits and smooth on the palate, the spirit is easily one of the most unique in the country.
Price: INR 2,492 for 750 ml bottle
Moskovkaya Pink Raspberry & Lime Vodka
Who said vodka can’t be fun? This light-pink vodka is not just a treat to the eyes, but also to the palate. With a fruity, zingy twist, the classic Moskovkaya Vodka is a refreshing vibrance in a bottle.
The vodka is infused with natural raspberry and lime flavors, making it great for someone who enjoys flavored vodka over the classic one. It balances the sweet raspberry with the zesty lime and packs the punch with the quintessential vodka finish. Simply pop it in a Cosmo or mix it with tonic water for a summer-inspired drink. Also, you can freeze some raspberries in ice cubes to add that extra flair!
