Join Patrick Newton the award-winning Head Distiller at Waiheke Whisky, for an intimate tasting that goes beyond the glass, showcasing the maturation methodology and unique microclimate of Waiheke Island. Waiheke is helping define the New Zealand flavour profile, shaped by an “island in the Pacific”, volcanic water, maritime air, local casks, New Zealand peated barley and a warmer maturation climate to create coastal spirits that balance both New and Old World characteristics. Featuring their latest releases, both peated and non-peated expressions, Patrick will also bring an exclusive bottling of a surprise dram as a first taste of the future.
