About

Mark (Longy) became intrigued by the notion of employing traditional distillation techniques for gin-making, focusing on using pure ingredients.

He began by fermenting various grains: primarily wheat, oats, and barley. A copper still, received as a Christmas 2020 gift, was installed in the garage, and the initial distillation took place in January 2021.

Drift Bay Distilling Co Limited draws water from a private aquifer beneath The Remarkables mountain range. This aquifer, initially formed by glacial melt that shaped The Remarkables, now gets replenished by pristine snowmelt, filtering through extensive rock layers. It is easy to understand why our gins taste so vibrant and clean.

Proudly made in Queenstown, New Zealand.
