In the days of the desert kingdom’s royal families, each household closely guarded its distillery secrets. Introduced in 1863 by the esteemed Kanota Thikana family, the Royal Chandr Haas was exclusively created for the royal houses of Jaipur. This legendary spirit, stepped in tradition, is made from locally sourced seasonal ingredients using ancient recipes passed down through generations.
Guided by Ayurvedic principles and infused with 80 varieties of herbs, spices, and dry fruits, the Royal Chandr Haas includes exotic ingredients specially selected for their medicinal properties—digestive, carminative, and stimulating—resulting in a potent and balanced composition. The name, meaning “sword,” symbolizes the destruction of enemies, metaphorically referring to the removal of certain diseases from the body.
What makes it truly extraordinary is the precision and tradition behind its preparation, giving it an almost mystical quality. Stories tell of mantras being chanted as the fires beneath the boilers were stoked, infusing the liquor with a spiritual essence. Connoisseurs still celebrate its aphrodisiac qualities and its complex, layered flavor profile.
