Description
Classic Cardrona Source accentuated with warm winter spice notes from 8 months resting in a Heaven Hill ex-bourbon barrel. Light straw in colour, think champagne with a secret, the initial contact on the nose is Cadrona’s signature citrus forward Source, matured with sweet biscuit and light winter spices. 

Distilling
Cardrona Distillery does not cut corners. The Distillery has designed its craft process around the deep single malt traditions, starting from scratch with malted barley to create a genuine artisan premium spirit, a rarity in the spirits industry. Every aspect of Cardrona’s products is of the highest quality, from the pure Cardrona Valley alpine water, the rich malted barley and the locally foraged ingredients to the hand picked oak casks from Spain and America. Cardrona Distillery’s spirits are distilled using copper stills and all natural ingredients. The still house is home to five stills and the distillation process is: Milling | Mashing | Fermenting | Distilling | Maturing | Bottling.

About

She began researching distillation and the crafting of great spirits. The exquisite range of award winning whiskies, spirits and liqueurs produced at the Cardrona Distillery is the result of many years of study, planning and research. Creating the finest spirits with pure Alpine water sourced from the heart of Mount Cardrona, from New Zealand's Southern Alps, and locally foraged seasonal ingredients to produce an unparalleled signature taste.
