Anthill Ventures

Ginglani Distillers is an underdog whiskey start-up, igniting the sparks of a craft whiskey movement in India. Driven by a young founder, Shivam Ginglani and a team of passionate and fearless individuals, we're on the journey to establish "Himalayan Whiskey" as the face of India in the global whiskey industry. We believe whiskey is only as good as the water that's used in making it. And the water that goes into crafting Woodsmen Mountain Whiskey comes from one of the purest water sources in the world - the springs of the Himalayan Mountains. It's this, coupled with our constant hunger to innovate, push boundaries, and cheekily push back the status quo, that makes us think we'll go on to create whiskey history.
