“I am thrilled to join Rutland Square. This project is an exciting bridge between two economies and cultures. Scotland is a beautiful country with deep-rooted traditions and a strong Indian business community. I look forward to working closely with the team to bring this vision to life,” Vivek Oberoi said.

“This marks a new chapter in Scotland’s hospitality sector, promising a future of sustainability, heritage and world-class experiences. Rutland Square Spirits is taking it a step further by curating a blended experience of Indian heritage. I am excited to begin the work of bringing it to life,” he added.

"We are delighted to welcome Vivek Oberoi to the Rutland Square family," said Nishant Sharma, Founder and CEO. "This collaboration is a testament to the growing relationship between Scotland, India, and the wider South Asian community. It goes beyond investment—we are creating a cultural and artisanal experience."

Rutland Square Spirits, founded by Nishant Sharma, is making a name for itself in the alcohol industry by blending world-famous tea leaves from Dibrugarh into its craft spirits.

Dibrugarh, along with nearby Tinsukia and Sivasagar, produces nearly half of India’s tea—and now, that tea is gaining global attention in a new way: through Scotch-style liquor.

Along with expanding its product line, the partnership has announced plans to build a luxury net-zero hotel in Edinburgh.

This unique project will include Europe’s first hydrogen-powered hospitality services and Scotland’s first Ayurvedic wellness centre—combining eco-friendly technology with traditional Indian healing practices.
