When someone says the word whisky (or whiskey in the U.S. or Ireland), it conjures images of rolling Scottish highlands.

Or distilleries with traditions stretching back hundreds of years.

But today, the world’s best-selling whiskies come from an unlikely source: India.

For this graphic, Visual Capitalist’s Alan Kennedy partnered with Rare Whisky 101 to explore recent whisky sales and determine what the most popular brand is today.

The Dominance of Indian Whisky

The global alcohol industry is valued at around $1.8 trillion and is forecast to grow with a 9.7% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) between 2025 and 2030.

The Indian and Chinese markets are largely responsible for this growth. These markets now have incredible demand for luxury and artisanal drinks. So it should be no surprise that eight of the 20 most popular whiskies globally are Indian.

The Bill’s Adding Up for Los Angeles – HotAir
February 28, 2025
Ah, those fires. Lord, are they going to be expensive. And that’s in today’s dollars – not in ‘down the road’ dollars, after the elected California officials get done doing everything they can to make the cost projections even worse. This is so grim. Last month’s Palisades and Eaton wildfires caused between $28 billion and $53.8 billion in property damage, with business disruptions projected to result in economic losses of up to $8.9 billion in Los Angeles County alone over the next five years, according to a study published Thursday. The report commissioned by the Southern California Leadership Council and the LA County Economic Development Corporation studies the impacts of the destruction and economic havoc caused by the fires and offers data-driven recommendations to guide recovery efforts. The study estimates that the fires could lead to up to 49,110 job-years lost and reductions in labor income of up to $3.7 billion, while federal, state and local governments could experience tax revenue losses ranging from $730 million to $1.4 billion. They’re firing up the recall efforts again in the wake of these disasters, but I’m not sure what good that will… Read the full article here […]

Vance Responds to Pope’s Criticism of Trump Administration
February 28, 2025
The vice president also discussed using social media to respond to messages and criticism from the pope, bishops, and other religious leaders. Vice President JD Vance said he was surprised to hear of Pope Francis’s criticism of the Trump administration’s immigration policy while speaking at the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast in Washington on Feb. 28. Despite that disagreement, Vance prayed for Pope Francis at the event, as the pope remained in critical condition on Feb. 28 after suffering a bronchospasm that caused vomiting and the need for non-invasive mechanical ventilation, the Holy See announced. Vance also said he believes that the pontiff is a man who deeply cares about the spiritual direction of the faith and the world’s Christians. “I will always remember the Holy Father as a great pastor, as a man who can speak the truth, the faith, in a very profound way at a moment of great crisis,” Vance said. He recalled a sermon of hope that the pope delivered in March 2020 at the height of the pandemic in an empty St. Peter’s Square, likening it to the gospel in which Jesus calmed the sea after his terrified disciples awakened him during a storm. Vance, the first… […]

Yankees’ Gerrit Cole shows off new weapon in solid first spring start
February 28, 2025
TAMPA — The word of the night for Gerrit Cole: change. A year after he made just one spring start before his elbow began barking to begin a monthslong saga, Cole’s arm and elbow felt plenty changed. “I feel way different [than this time last year],” Cole said after his first Grapefruit League outing Friday. “I really like where I’m at. I liked what I saw.” The Yankees ace physically feels better, and he feels good about his arsenal, too — which now includes a more emphasized and tweaked changeup. Cole showed off his health and his newest weapon in 3 ¹/₃ innings of a 6-3 win over the Blue Jays at Steinbrenner Field in which he allowed a run and three hits, hit one batter and struck out five. The righty was sharp, returned for a batter in the fourth inning because he was so efficient and finished with 46 pitches (including 33 strikes). His four-seam fastball sat around 95 mph, which is a positive for late February, but his changeup was the most intriguing development. A pitch Cole barely threw last year — used just 4 percent of the time — was featured 15 times and generated three whiffs on seven Toronto… Read the full article here […]

February 28, 2025
A STUDENT was crushed to death after falling into in a rubbish bin during a night out in Majorca. Agostina Rubini, 24, had gone missing in Palma after partying with pals on the Spanish party island, sparking a massive police search. Police have confirmed that skeletal remains found in October belong to AgostinaCredit: NF/newsX 7 Agostina passed out in a rubbish bin and ended up at a landfill siteCredit: Solarpix 7 Agostina was on a night out with friends when she disappearedCredit: NF/newsX Cops found skeletal remains at a waste plant after the young student’s phone pinged. And now police have confirmed she was crushed to death after accidentally passing out in a rubbish container. The Argentinian national is thought to have “voluntarily entered a (rubbish) container” where she lost consciousness, according to police reports. That bin was collected by a lorry which drove to the Son Reus treatment plant. The police stopped activity at the landfill site and began a month-long search for the missing student. After looking through more than 60,000 tons of waste, more than 1,000 skeletal remains were found.

Teleperformance uses AI to ‘neutralize’ Indian accents among staff
February 28, 2025
Teleperformance, the largest call-center operator in the world, is rolling out an artificial intelligence system that softens English-speaking Indian workers’ accents in real time in a move the company claims will make them more understandable. The technology, called accent translation, coupled with background noise cancellation, is being deployed in call centers in India, where workers provide customer support to some of Teleperformance’s international clients. Teleperformance provides outsourced customer support and content moderation to global companies including Apple, ByteDance’s TikTok and Samsung Electronics. “When you have an Indian agent on the line, sometimes it’s hard to hear, to understand,” Deputy-CEO Thomas Mackenbrock said in an interview with Bloomberg. The technology can “neutralize the accent of the Indian speaker with zero latency,” he said. This “creates more intimacy, increases the customer satisfaction, and reduces the average handling time: it is a win-win for both parties.” Read the full article here […]
Cops Vote to End Bitter, Prolonged Pay Fight
February 28, 2025
Thousands of police have voted to accept a bumper pay deal, marking the end of an 18-month dispute over the hike. Voting for Victoria Police’s enterprise bargaining agreement ballot closed on Feb. 28 with 76 percent of 16,200 voting members agreeing to the deal. It includes a minimum 4.5 percent annual pay increase over the next four years with those on the frontline winning an additional 0.5 percent raise. However, members will no longer be allowed to access a clause which enabled them to cash in up to 12 months accrued sick leave upon retirement. Police Association chief executive Wayne Gatt said more still needs to be done to improve working conditions in the force. “The finalisation of this industrial dispute is just the first step in a raft of improvements that desperately need to occur quickly to support our front line, so that it can continue to protect and support the community,” he said.
