DCSL’s roots can be traced back to 1913, when the Excise Department of Ceylon, which was initially created as the enforcement authority to distribute and sell liquor products in Sri Lanka, branched out into the distillation and manufacture of liquor products. In 1974, the State Distilleries Corporation was incorporated by statute, to take over this venture, while the Excise Department realigned its operations as a monitoring body.
