--------THE PRODUCER--------

Thomson Whisky

Thomson love what they do; making craft whisky for the modern enthusiast. After a few years mucking about on a home still and learning as much as we could about whisky  they began the Thomson Whisky project as Independent Bottlers. They got hold of a few barrels of aged single malt from Willowbank Distillery, Dunedin, carefully selected to their personal tastes, to launch under the Thomson name. They started telling people about their whisky, sharing a drink with friends, then bartenders, and shops and people travelling overseas and their project started firing. A few years down the road and things have changed a lot. They are now distilling themselves like mad out in West Auckland.
