Rakiura Distilling Co. 'Stewart Island' Third Island Gin 700ml 46.5%
As the flagship offering of New Zealand’s southernmost distillery, Third Island Gin was born of an attempt to capture the essence of Rakiura / Stewart Island in the best way we knew how.
Locally hand-foraged mānuka, rimu & horopito dance alongside classic gin botanicals in a sub-Antarctic shower of some of the world’s freshest rainfall - our distillery's only water source.
These native accents – reminiscent of tea tree, young pine & pepper – are harvested from the surrounding rainforest on the morning of each batch’s inception.
In every sip, a delicate mouthfeel carries a bold yet inviting sense of juniper & citrus at its forefront before shining a spotlight on mānuka and rimu – refreshing notes which evoke a sense of immersion in our untouched and untamed wilderness.
A final lingering impression of horopito – highlighted by a blend of carefully-curated spices – leaves the palate with nothing more than a desire to once again indulge in this unique expression of Rakiura.
A true taste of Stewart Island - from wherever your vessel may be.
Serving Suggestions
Best served with 2-3 parts light tonic, or soda water, to 1 part Third Island Gin.
Garnish with your choice of fresh citrus.
Also enjoyed by many on Stewart Island with nothing more than a small serving of ice or a dash of cold water to taste. This helps to awaken its full botanical profile while keeping an unbiased snapshot of the surrounding bush as it was on the day of foraging.
