About Fenton Street Distillery

Fenton Street Gin is crafted in Stratford at an elevation of 310m/1017 feet. They capture Botanics at altitude. Their botanics are not distilled separately then blended. To ensure flavours are balanced they are carefully measured in much the same way as a chef creates a dish.

Due to the freshness and volume of the botanicals, some of the Fenton Street gins may appear cloudy when tonic is added or sipped on ice. This is because their gins are non-chill filtered. Stuart Greenhill, head distiller said: ?We don?t want to chill-filter. The whole point of our gin is to capture flavours from carefully selected and measured botanics. It seems unproductive to distil in what is essentially a neutral flavoured spirit and then filter out the natural oils again.?

Peddlers is the world's first Chinese craft gin. Its secret is a carefully curated fusion of botanicals and ideas from the West and the Far East. The Gin was inspired by Shanghai's underground culture: a diverse community of creators and artists, merchants and musicians, who push the boundaries of their craft.

Named after the still in which it is made, Coffey Gin is produced by popular Japanese whisky brand Nikka. Eleven botanicals go are used, including amanatsu, yuzu and sansho pepper from Japan, alongside coriander, citrus peels and apple juice. As a large number of the botanicals are citrus fruits, the gin has multi-layered citrus notes and a zesty, long finish. Try it in a Negroni. 

Little Biddy^? Gin ? Black Label is characterised by a backbone of distilled local grain spirit, wild water, and hand harvested native botanicals, boasting an elevated sophistication that is truly divine.

Black Label displays a botanical intensity reminiscent of the loftiest heights of the West Coast rainforest and the purest depths of the wild water feeding it. Foraged Watercress, Snow Moss, Kahikatea tips, and Toatoa all deliver a soulful aromatic experience. At 46% ABV, the concentrated distillate ensures brighter, more crystalline flavours awash with volatile aromatics. A sophisticated and layered gin, suited to quiet, contemplative moments, and discerning minds.

Created in honour of Reefton legend little Biddy, a pipe-smoking, gin-toting, 4 foot tall gold prospector.  Our search for native botanicals takes us deep into the same West Coast rainforest where Biddy once fossicked for gold, to craft a uniquely New Zealand selection of small batch distilled gins with attitude.

A thoughtful mix of nine botanicals, Fords Gin starts with a traditional base of juniper & coriander seed balanced by citrus, florals and spices. Steeped for 15 hours before distillation, the botanicals deliver an aromatic, fresh and floral spirit with elegant notes of jasmine and grapefruit that creates a versatile base for any gin-inspired cocktail.

Dive into the magic of the sea, with Hendricks NEPTUNIA. An extraordinary new gin from our Cabinet of Curiosities. Hendricks NEPTUNIA is based on Hendricks Gin with its signature foundation of rose and cucumber, but with an additional wave of flavour from an invigorating blend of sea kelp, coastal thyme and  lime, which has that huge maritime story and history behind it. And all three of those come together, layered above our original Hendricks Gin recipe, to create a gin that has depth and an earthiness, but also has that fresh, herbaceous feeling which comes from the coastal thyme and the lime itself. Unmistakably Hendricks with an added infusion of locally sourced botanicals, Hendricks NEPTUNIA combines a smooth, citrus finish with a unique hint of the distant sea breeze.

TASTING NOTES:
Alluring juniper character, lengthened with the deep earthy notes of Scottish sea botanicals and the fresh character of coastal herbs.

SERVING SUGGESTION:
Mix with soda, simple syrup and a squeeze of lime, garnished cucumber sliced to create a Hendrick's Neptunia Fizz.

This exquisitely extravagant expression boasts a rich ensemble of bright flavours that seduce the senses. It seems that stone fruit flavours, rose scents and gin were a magical combination in the most opulent of establishments in Paris at the turn of the 20th Century, and eaux de vies, peach schnapps, cherry liqueurs and the like were the 'in thing' for those who had the means to celebrate in spectacular style.

Hendrick's Master Distiller, alchemist and liquid poet Lesley Gracie has deftly combined these flavours into a ravishingly fruity spirit, where pirouettes of decadent stone fruit share the stage with sweet herbs and make for an elegant sensory feast that is deliciously indulgent and yet as light as silk.

This is a bright, bold gin that has a rich depth and layers of flavour and yet is still refreshing and light - it’s ideal in a Hendrick's Grand Cabaret and Tonic. If you want to be a little more fancy, the Hendrick's Grand Cabaret Royale is an indulgent way to toast tantalising celebrations and combines Hendrick's Grand Cabaret, cranberry, lime and a touch of sugar syrup which is topped with Champagne or sparkling wine for added decadence.

Sea Lovers Gin is a distinctive and delicious contemporary gin that subtly marries marine ingredients with more traditional botanicals, conjuring the essence of the sea into your glass. The wild harvested North Island kelp gives a lovely umami complexity to the nose and serves as a counterpoint to the brightness of the lime and rosemary. The palate is full and crisp with the oyster shells bringing a sophisticated minerality. Serve with quality light tonic or soda, a sprig fresh rosemary and twist of lime.

Umenoyado Gin is a blend of juniper berries, coriander seeds, high-quality yuzu, lemon, and apple, and special sake brewed by Umenoyado. These are combined using a distillation method that fully brings out the flavor of the five types of botanicals and sake, as well as our traditional blending techniques, to create a special Japanese craft gin.
Enjoy the elegant taste that only Umenoyado Brewery can offer, combining the refreshing aromas of yuzu and lemon, the gentle sweetness of apples, and the mellow aroma of sake.
