Gin drinkers in Mumbai should raise a toast to distilleries in Goa. For a long time, people in the city had access only to international brands that cost above Rs 3,000 a bottle (we aren't taking Blue Riband into consideration here because, well, it's Blue Riband). But then Stranger & Sons brought the price down to Rs 2,570, while Greater Than gave people an excellent option at Rs 1,500. And now, there's Pumori, another gift from Goa to Mumbai, being launched in the market this month at Rs 1,750 for 750 ml. It's a remarkably smooth gin with notes of Indian spices including cinnamon and cardamom. We tried it with tonic water and soda separately. Both options were as refreshing as a civilised debate would be on 9 pm news television.
