Why did Allied Blenders and Distillers' shares rise in trade? 

The demand on the counter came after the company’s subsidiary, ABD Maestro’s portfolio, secured accolades for three brands. 

 

 

Its flagship Woodburns Contemporary Indian Malt Whisky secured a landmark dual victory—winning both the Grand Gold and the coveted title of Best Revelation Blended Whisky of the Year, a historic first for an Indian whisky on the global stage.

 

The accolades continued with Pumori Small Batch Gin clinching a Gold medal in the gin category, and Arthaus Blended Malt Scotch Whisky bagging a Silver medal in the highly competitive Scotch whisky category, further cementing the depth of the ABD Maestro portfolio.

 

The 27th edition of Spirits Selection by CMB, held this year in Jalisco, Mexico—the birthplace of Tequila and Raicilla—saw 2,598 entries from 70 countries across 64 categories, blind-tasted by 140 expert judges from 45 nationalities. The wins place ABD Maestro alongside some of the world’s most distinguished spirit makers.

“The Grand Gold and Revelation win for Woodburns are massive—it affirms our vision of building world-class brands rooted in authenticity and craftsmanship. Pumori Gin’s Gold medal and Arthaus’ Silver in the crowded Scotch category further emphasise the quality and global potential of our portfolio,” said Bikram Basu, managing director, ABD Maestro.

 

With these recognitions, ABD Maestro underlined its ambition of redefining Indian spirits globally, while continuing to build a luxury and premium portfolio that reflects craftsmanship and authenticity.
