The world's highest distillery is the Kasauli distillery in the Himalaya mountains at an elevation of over 6,000 feet (1,800 m). Historically, the main whisky brand made by the Kasauli distillery was a well regarded single malt named "Solan No. 1" named after the nearby town of Solan. Solan No. 1 was the best selling Indian whisky for over a century until the 1980s. In recent years, it has seen a decline in its fortunes. Today it is struggling against many much bigger rivals, which are largely flavoured rums (distilled from sugar cane juice). It remains the only single malt whisky made in the Himalayas.
Today, Mohan Meakin's principal liquor brand is Old Monk rum, whiskies include Diplomat Deluxe, Colonel's Special, Black Knight, Summer Hall and Solan No. 1. The company also produces London Dry and Big Ben gins, and Kaplanski vodka.

Famous quotes containing the word products:
“It seemed there was a sort of poisoning, an auto-infection of the organisms, so Dr. Krokowski said; it was caused by the disintegration of a substance ... and the products of this disintegration operated like an intoxicant upon the nerve-centres of the spinal cord, with an effect similar to that of certain poisons, such as morphia, or cocaine.”
—Thomas Mann (1875–1955)
“... white people, like black ones, are victims of a racist society. They are products of their time and place.”
—Shirley Chisholm (b. 1924)
“But, most of all, the Great Society is not a safe harbor, a resting place, a final objective, a finished work. It is a challenge constantly renewed, beckoning us toward a destiny where the meaning of our lives matches the marvelous products of our labor.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
