Award-Winning Vanaha Gin Expands National Footprint Across Key Indian Markets like Haryana, Rajasthan, Pondicherry

February 2026: Vanaha Gin, India’s pioneering forest-to-bottle artisanal spirit from Revelry Distillery, continues its ascent as one of the country’s most compelling luxury craft labels, garnering recognition across both national and international platforms. Within months of its debut, the brand has secured five distinguished global accolades, including the coveted Master Medal at The Spirits Business Global Gin Masters, honours from the IWSC (UK) and the Global Wine & Spirits Awards Asia, and Gold at The Spirits Business Global Spirits Design Masters. Notably, Vanaha is the only gin worldwide shortlisted for Innovation in Production at The Spirits Business Awards 2025 — a landmark distinction that places Indian craft distillation firmly on the global innovation map.

Building on this momentum, Vanaha Gin announces its expansion into Rajasthan, Haryana and  Pondicherry , strengthening its growing national presence. Previously available in Goa and Madhya Pradesh, entry into these dynamic markets marks a strategic milestone in the brand’s carefully curated growth journey. With Pondicherry’s increasingly sophisticated alcobev culture and Rajasthan, Haryana’s discerning consumer base embracing elevated craft spirits, the expansion reflects a rising appetite for artisanal gins defined by provenance, authenticity, and refined character.

Crafted with 24 meticulously selected botanicals, Vanaha undergoes an exacting five-stage distillation process — Botanical Maceration, Copper Pot Distillation, Vapour Infusion, Cold Vacuum Distillation, and Staging — engineered to preserve the purest expression of each ingredient. The inclusion of cold vacuum distillation ensures delicate botanicals retain their intrinsic aroma and complexity, resulting in a spirit that is layered, elegant, and unmistakably natural. This precision-driven approach, rooted in research, terroir, and technical mastery, distinguishes Vanaha within the competitive luxury gin landscape.

At the heart of this vision is Vaniitha Jaiin, Founder and Chief Evangelist of Revelry Distillery, and among the first women in India to independently build, own, and operate a distillery. With Vanaha — a name derived from vana (forest) and aha (a moment of realisation) — she set out to create more than a spirit; she envisioned an experience capturing the purity, depth, and quiet power of India’s forests. Under her leadership, Revelry Distillery has emerged as a purpose-built, innovation-led facility that harmonises European copper pot stills, data-driven distillation, and a strong commitment to sustainability and scale.

“Vanaha was born from a simple yet ambitious idea — to bottle the soul of a forest in its most pristine form,” says Vaniitha Jaiin. “Each new market represents not just expansion, but the opportunity to share our philosophy of mindful distillation, authenticity, and Indian craftsmanship with a wider audience.” says  Vaniitha Jaiin, Founder & Chief Evangelist of Revelry Distillery.

As India’s premium spirits sector evolves, Vanaha’s entry into Haryana, Pondicherry and Rajasthan signals a broader shift — one in which homegrown brands are not merely participating on the global stage but redefining excellence through innovation, integrity, and a profound sense of origin.
