We are a small batch boutique distillery, set on the foothills of Mt Fyffe, Kaikōura.

Using botanics sourced from around our farm and local area, we have created two distinct blends of small batch artisan London dry gin; Woolshed Gin and Shearwater Gin.

Read our story…

“I love water, especially when it’s frozen and surrounded by Gin” 

Woolshed Gin

Pairing the rich earthy tones of kanuka flowers with the freshness of mint, add a hint of elderflower. All gathered from the slopes of Mt Fyffe to give a bold botanical gin which evokes another sip.

So I took a break from distilling Gin last week, stepped out of my comfort zone and followed a long term dream of mine which was to run a multi stage ultra .. 265km and 10,000m vert over 7 days was a challenge like no other.. the peace, serenity, world class views of the southern lakes and ultra family had me smiling the whole way through. I loved every second and am coming back for more next year. Plenty of time to think over the days has me excited about a few ideas I have in the distillery… so watch this space… #theultrarunninggindistiller  #southernlakesultra #mtfyffedistillery  #livingontheedge #nevergiveup #pushingyourlimits
