8 reviews for Somarasa: Spirituous Drinks in Ancient India

  1. Laxman Sharma

    I was hoping for a more accessible read. Somarasa is very scholarly. It’s still packed with information.

  2. Anuj Jukariya

    Somarasa provides a unique perspective on ancient Indian society. I enjoyed learning about the rituals. A bit academic at times.

  3. Aayush Jaiswal

    A well-researched book on a little-known aspect of Indian history. It shed light on the Vedic times.

  4. Harsh Sharma

    Interesting topic, but the writing style is dry. I struggled to stay engaged. The historical details were interesting, though.

  5. Daksh Dagar

    Somarasa is a deep dive into the history of alcohol. It offers a fresh look at ancient India.

  6. Vivek Patel

    An eye-opening exploration of ancient Indian drinks. I learned so much! It was a bit dense.

  7. Aanchal Arya

    A fascinating glimpse into ancient Indian drinking culture. Though dense, the research is thorough. Some parts felt repetitive.

  8. Kumar Keshav

    I found this book informative but a bit tedious. The author has compiled a comprehensive study.
