7. Kunal Patel Founder & Director of Monika Enterprises Bushmills 12 YO definitely. It is one of the finest single malts I have come across. I enjoy drinking it in an Old Fashioned Cocktail. Favourite whisky memory: It was the first time I tried an Irish Whiskey. I remember how it changed my perspective of ‘Whiskey’ itself entirely. I have been in awe of the kind ever since. 8. Manoj Jangid Director Food & Beverage, JW Marriott Mumbai Sahar Hibiki has always been one of my favourites. I prefer sipping it with a simple addition of ice and sparkling water. Favourite whisky memory: My favourite whiskey memory is the time shared with my mentor who introduced me to Hibiki. He would always make himself a straight-up drink without adding any ice or mixers and would often encourage us to do the same. 9. Ranbir Nagpal Co-owner of Yazu, Goa & Mumbai My favourite whiskey is Woodburns. I prefer to drink 30ml of it on the rocks. Favourite whisky memory: I was standing at Yazu in Goa listening to one of my favourite songs Father Ocean by Ben Bohmer and listening to the sound of the ocean while enjoying the breeze, surrounded by my good friends, and family sipping on Woodburn’s. 10. Sameer Uttamsingh Brand Consultant & Founder of Acme Hospitality Woodburns is my favourite whiskey and I enjoy drinking it on the rocks, plenty of rocks! Favourite whisky memory: Blind tasting various Japanese whiskeys at the same time —Yamazaki 21, Hibiki Sakura edition, Nikka from the barrel. 11. Upender Singh Tomar Food & Beverage Manager My all-time favourite whisky is Johnnie Walker Black Label. I prefer to drink it with chilled water and two cubes of ice. Favourite whisky memory: It was a house party where I was sipping my favourite drink. After having a couple of drinks, I had the courage to propose to my then crush and now wife Sonal. Its special because I get to share that memory with the love of my life. 7 8 9 10 11 6 46| L U X E B O O K | M AY 2 0 2 2 Coming soon... Most Powerful - 2022 Edition
