Who is Siddharth Sharma, the Man Behind Indian Indri Whisky and Piccadily Distilleries?


Siddharth Sharma is a well-known Indian entrepreneur. He recently made headlines because his company’s product, the Indri Diwali Collector’s Edition 2023, was named one of the “Whiskies of the World.”


He leads Piccadily Distilleries, a famous whiskey brand located in the Indri area. The distillery was founded in 1953 and officially recognized in 1967. In 1994, the Sharma family bought the distillery, bringing new life to the business. Since then, Siddharth Sharma has worked hard to improve and grow the distillery's products.

In 2008, under
Siddharth Sharma leadership, Piccadily Distilleries began focusing on premium products. This move into the premium malt market changed the company from just an alcohol producer into a high-quality whiskey brand.

Looking ahead, Siddharth Sharma wants to expand and diversify the single malt collection as part of his long-term vision. To meet the growing demand for premium spirits, the company is planning to build a second malt facility to increase production capacity.
