Founded by Prabhat Sharma and Rohit Saxena, the duo behind the brand are trying to shake up a space that’s long been dominated by either bland, budget booze or imported bottles priced out of reach. Their pitch? Smooth, small-batch liquor with premium presentation—without the high-end markup.
Feline Spirits has already developed a solid lineup that includes vodka, whisky, and brandy, tailored for both premium and mass-premium consumers. And they’re not cutting corners: the company says it’s focused on honest distillation methods and real ingredients, all wrapped in sleek packaging that wouldn’t look out of place on a top-shelf bar.
“We started Feline Spirits with the idea that great alcohol shouldn’t be reserved for the elite,” said CEO Prabhat Sharma. “With IPV’s support, we’re stepping on the gas—building new products, growing our reach, and creating a brand that stands for quality, not compromise.”
The company isn’t just dreaming big—it’s already made a dent. Feline Spirits is available in eight states and union territories and says it’s served more than two million customers so far. Now, it’s eyeing deeper distribution across both private retail and state-controlled liquor boards.
According to IPV co-founder Ankur Mittal, there’s a clear gap in the market: “You’re either stuck with cheap local stuff or paying a premium for foreign brands. Feline is changing that—they’re putting beautifully crafted, great-tasting spirits within reach of the average Indian drinker.”
