Irish whiskey exports to India have risen over the past five years despite tariffs.
An Offaly MEP believes there is a great opportunity for Ireland to grow its spirits sector in India.
Fianna Fáil's Barry Cowen is meeting with members of the Indian Government, to discuss the potential of an EU-India trade deal.
Over the past five years, Irish whiskey exports to India have increased, despite facing tariffs of around 150% under import rules.
A recent trade pact between the UK and India lowered tariffs on whiskey and gin from 150 to 75%, with a further reduction to 40% over 10 years.
Mr Cowen says Ireland hopes to match that:
