We make what is known as “pure single rum”. Pure – because it comes from molasses and is 100 per cent batch/pot-stilled. Single – because the whole process takes place at our distillery. We like to keep things natural and simple. Aided, admittedly, by a bit of Kiwi inventiveness, we basically provide the right conditions and the best raw materials, and let nature work its magic.

Only ingredients of the highest quality go into making our spirits. We favour using organic and locally sourced ingredients wherever possible. No chemicals or sweeteners or anything of that ilk are added to our products at any stage of the process.

In fact, our whole boutique rum operation is based on a sustainable ethic. The rum distilling process itself is easy on the environment, as there is zero waste produced. This is carried through into our plant, where we upcycle metal equipment and reuse wooden barrels. The spring water we blend our rum with originates in the pure alpine wilderness of Tongariro. You get the picture.
