In its state of origin, Karnataka, too, Amrut Distilleries grew to be one of the dominant suppliers, especially in the old Mysore area.After the untimely demise of J.N. Radhakrishna Rao Jagdale in 1976, the mantle devolved on his son, Shri Neelakanta Rao, the present Chairman and Managing Director. Building on the solid foundations laid by his late father, he has seen Amrut Distilleries blossom into a multi-national brand respected as much for the superlative quality of its products as his campaign for transparent practices by the IML industry. 1960s Amrut Distilleries ventures into the Rectification and Distillation of Rum. 1970s In the 70s, an evolving market of India saw Amrut foray into a new side of things - the distillation of Brandy 1980s In the 80s buoyed by the will to offer Indian consumers quality products, Amrut ventured into the distillation of Malts with an aim to produce class leading whiskies. 2002 Much of this fascinating story was made possible by the resolve of successive generations of the Jagdale family, Mr. Rakshith Jagdale, who embraced value to discount form for substance.
