Scotland

New Zealand may be a young whisky nation, but it’s one with a clear voice. From the pioneering bottlings of the old Willowbank distillery to today’s new guard - including Thomson, Waiheke, Pōkeno and Cardrona (four of our favourites) - the country draws on pure often Alpine water, local barley, diverse climates and local casks to shape whiskies of clarity and depth. Still defining its identity, New Zealand whisky is carving out a place on the world stage with spirits that taste of home. Of New Zealand.
