Distill The Spirit Festival

Let’s face it.

Liquor definitely plays a role in almost every festival out there, whether we’re talking about a music, food, cultural festival or corporate event. Why? Because, besides its tastiness and its status as the ultimate celebration tool, alcohol has magical powers that bring us all closer together.

India’s first only spirits festival managed by a team of experts.
