And while his new cane liquor is similar to the Brazilian Cachaca and French West Indian sugarcane juice rum Rhum Agricole, he prefers to call it 'Pure Cane'.

"I hope this is an inspiration to other companies. If people can look at us and say we have done it, so can we. That will be great," Nazareth told IANS.

He said that a lot of local natural resources can be used to make premium spirits.

Nazareth said that the Indian date, toddy, coconut palm and various indigenous fruit could be tapped by alcohol-brewing enterprises to make top class products.
