GinSin Wins ‘Best Indian Gin’ Award

GinSin London Dry Gin has triumphed at the World Gin Awards 2025 in Norwich, UK, securing the titles of ‘Best Indian Gin’ and ‘India Country Winner,’ alongside a gold medal in the Signature London Dry Gin category. This global recognition comes from the world’s largest spirits competition, where the first round of tastings determined regional medallists, with gold winners moving forward to compete for the Country Winner title. GinSin, from the Cheers Group, emerged victorious in both categories.

“We are truly honoured to receive the gold medal and 'Country’s Best Gin' award from such a global competition, which celebrates the finest gins and spirits from around the world,” says Dr. Mohan Krishna Balivada, founder of Cheers Group and the world’s first doctorate in alco-bev marketing.

Known for its expertly distilled gin, GinSin has crafted a signature smooth taste and soft mouthfeel, contributing to its global success. This ‘genius’ distillation process has cemented GinSin as one of the most coveted gin brands worldwide.

"We are passionate about creating gin that our customers love. The consistency of our awards—both in India and internationally—proves our dedication to quality distilling and exceptional cocktails," says Ashwin Balivada, CEO of Cheers Group.

GinSin’s achievement is a testament to the importance of quality, price, and packaging in building a winning spirits brand. The brand’s success is further underscored by the Cheers Group’s broad portfolio, which includes over 200 national and international awards for 120 brands, including the renowned Kadamba Indian Single Malt Whisky and Labrodog Premium Scotch, collectively valued at Rs 800 crores.
