Who doesn’t like savouring a glass full of luxury spirit aged for years and distilled to perfection? South Seas Distilleries have left no stone unturned to craft the world’s largest luxurious Mahura spirit which not only stands as a testament to their legacy but also demonstrates the significance of Indian culture.
The botanical marvel- the mahura flower is the charm of this luxurious spirit. Since the mahura flowers have colonial ties, history says, the collection of Mahura flowers and the production of mahura-based spirit was prohibited and the Mhowra Act of 1892 came into action.
South Seas Distilleries proudly announced the launches of two Mahura expressions including Six Brothers 1922 Resurrection and Six Brothers small batch (original). The launch highlights the introduction of the world’s first-ever matured mahura spirit which is crafted with a century of family expertise and double distillation method. The copper pots used for the distillation of this luxury spirit are the same as that of India’s oldest luxury single malts.

Based on the geographic locations in India, Mahura is also known as Mahura, Mahuva, Mhowra, Mahua and more.

The act of preparing liquors or any beverages has been passed on through the generations.
