Summary:

City bootleggers, though, have also evolved and started making their own branded liquor in Ahmedabad itself to sell them at the premium liquor rates.

He was adding flavour to low-brand liquor so that it could taste exactly like the premium brand liquors and they would fill it into the respective bottles." Akshayraj Makwana, DCP Zone-4, stated that, "The accused has a taste sense of every premium band liquor and could recognise the brand without even looking at the label. So much so, that one recent arrested accused was adding his own flavours to replicate the original brands..
