Description
A crisp and robust ‘London Dry’ style gin. A juniper forward palate followed by a fresh grapefruit and hop zest balanced against a highly aromatic kawakawa and gorse nose. Finishing long and clean with a slightly silky mouthfeel and lingering coriander seed note.

Distilling
Single shot distilled their boutique 200L copper pot still after a 24 hour maceration in sustainable neutral base spirit. Bottled at a bold 45% alcohol by volume.

Produced entirely onsite at their very own bespoke container distillery, they dehydrate, macerate, distill and bottle entirely in house, giving  complete quality control on everything they produce. Each run is batch distilled in a small 200L copper pot still named ‘Fanni Chanel’. A truly boutique operation where every process and principle is controlled by batch and by their own hands. All of their ingredients are direct sourced through either wild foraged, organically farmed or from Kiwi family owned businesses.
