Chilled’s Top 10 Drops for November 2026

Bringing you what’s new and noteworthy each month. Designed for bartenders and connoisseurs, we choose our favorite bottles, barware and bold ideas stirring up the scene.

Below are ten standout spirits worth sipping, sharing and showing off.

Amrut Kranthi Indian Single Malt Whisky

Bengaluru’s pioneering Amrut Distilleries has introduced Amrut Kranthi Single Malt Whisky, meaning “revolution” or “awakening” in Hindi, as a celebration of India’s self-reliance, craftsmanship, and single malt legacy. Aged over 3,000 feet above sea level in Bengaluru’s hyper-aggressive tropical climate, the non-chill filtered 40% ABV expression undergoes a complex four-cask maturation across new American, ex-bourbon, ex-madeira, and ex-oloroso barrels.

The choice to forego chill filtration gives the liquid a signature hazy appearance, unlocking a fruit-forward profile that opens with aromas of tropical fruits, pomelo, floral notes, and coconut. On the palate, it delivers vibrant citrus, creamy vanilla, soft tannins, and light spice before leading into a clean finish of lingering sweet citrus.

Amrut Kranthi carries an SRP of $39.99 for a 750ml bottle and is available at select wine and spirits retailers nationwide and online.

Mingle Mocktails Espresso Martini

Give the gift of indulgence without the alcohol this holiday season with Mingle Mocktails’ limited-edition Espresso Martini. Rich, smooth, and decadently delicious, this sophisticated zero-proof cocktail blends bold espresso with subtle notes of dark chocolate for a velvety finish. Unlike traditional sparkling mocktails, Mingle’s Espresso Martini is intentionally bubble-free, recreating the luxurious texture of the classic cocktail.

With 85 mg of caffeine and just 80 calories per 12 oz. can, it’s the ultimate 9-to-5-approved indulgence, perfect for an afternoon pick-me-up, festive gatherings, or a sophisticated after-dinner treat. A thoughtful gift for coffee enthusiasts, cocktail lovers, and anyone embracing a more mindful approach to drinking.

SRP $44.95 (12-pack of 12 fl. oz. cans). Available for a limited time, while supplies last.

SpikedAde Arctic Duo Collection

The new Arctic Duo expressions are available in 12 oz. cans at select spirits retailers and online, with pricing and retail availability varying by market.

Founded by Kevin Hart and 11th-generation tequila producer Juan Domingo Beckmann, Gran Coramino® Tequila is expanding its portfolio with the nationwide launch of Gran Coramino Blanco, the brand’s first unaged expression.

Crafted from 100% Blue Weber Agave, deep well water from Jalisco, and a proprietary yeast, this clear tequila is slow-cooked in traditional brick ovens and double-distilled in copper pot stills to highlight the agave’s natural complexity. Bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof), it opens with cooked agave, light citrus, subtle black pepper, and floral notes, delivering a smooth, vibrant finish with zero bite.

Gran Coramino Blanco is available nationwide in a 750ml bottle with an SRP of $34.99 and a 375ml bottle with an SRP of $18.99.

Founded by Kentucky natives and spirits industry veterans Penny Peavler and Amit Singla, Moon® Moonshine is a 35% ABV premium, low-sugar unaged corn whiskey double-distilled in small copper pot stills using 100% local Kentucky corn and shale-filtered limestone spring water.

Blended with all-natural fruit extracts, the brand’s 2026 San Francisco World Spirits Competition Silver medal-winning lineup includes Berry, Citrus, and Tropical expressions engineered for a smooth, clean finish without the traditional moonshine burn.

Bottled at 94 proof (47% ABV), this modern luxury bourbon opens with rich aromas of apricot jam, baked apple, and graham cracker before unfolding on the palate with dried stone fruit, caramelized vanilla, bittersweet chocolate, and warming gingerbread spice.

It has an SRP of $199 and is available at select retailers in Kentucky, with rollouts following in New York, California, and nationwide via online retailers.

Piper-Heidsieck Cuvée Brut Starlight Edition

Made from 100% malted barley and cut with Rocky Mountain spring water, the 94.6-proof whiskey is aged for 10 years in new charred American white oak, finished for over three years in Cognac casks, and completed with a nine-month finish in Hungarian Tokaji wine casks. The resulting pour delivers rich aromas of candied apricot and orange marmalade with a palate of baked apple, stone fruit, vanilla, rich tobacco, and lingering oak spice.
