The botanicals lean into traditional territory with a juniper-forward foundation, lifted by cherry-bright citrus notes and rounded out with honey and spice undertones. This Auckland distillery has earned multiple gold awards for this expression, reflecting the balance between classic structure and New Zealand character.

Nose: Clean juniper lead with citrus peel brightness and a subtle honeyed sweetness that invites exploration.

Palate: Juniper remains central, joined by cherry-like fruit notes, zesty citrus, and a touch of warming spice that builds complexity without overwhelming the base spirit.

Finish: Gentle spice lingers with honeyed sweetness and citrus echoes, keeping the profile clean and versatile.

The gin shines in a classic G&T where tonic opens up the citrus and spice layers, but it’s equally at home in a Negroni where the juniper backbone stands up to Campari and sweet vermouth. Dry Martini enthusiasts will appreciate the clean juniper base that lets vermouth nuances shine through, while East Side and cucumber-garnished serves highlight the citrus lift.

Perfect for home bartenders building a New Zealand spirits collection and cocktail enthusiasts who value versatility over one-note profiles.
