Their tastes vary widely, so you need to taste all of them to decide which one suit you best. Indian Scotch whisky brands offer a lot of options, so everyone can find something to their taste.
How to drink it - The first time you drink any whisky, it should be tasted neat. But if you wish to take the edge off and make it smoother, you can have it on the rocks or dilute it with a little water. Before sipping, take a good whiff. It will smell extremely pungently alcoholic but sniff a second and third time to get the true whisky aromatics. Then take a sip, hold it in your mouth for a couple of seconds and roll the liquid over your tongue.
