Производство бренди и коньяка в Индия

India is one of the world's largest spirits markets, yet brandy and cognac production is virtually non-existent. Grape distillates give way to local rum and whisky, which dominate consumption. In 2026, output stood at 0 тыс. гл, placing the country 2rd out of 197 nations. The key reason lies in historically shaped tastes: Indian consumers prefer whisky, often made from grain spirits, over grape-based distillates. Wine regions like Nashik and Karnataka focus on table wines rather than cognac raw materials.
