Pure and complex with magnificient citrus and juniper accent to begin. A finely spiced mid palate and a soft lingering finish. Lighthouse Gin has a very fine, soft tone with individual botanical notes. The citrus and juniper are finely balanced giving a fresh, clean start on the palate with the deeper spices adding length and complexity to the mid palate. Soft characters that hint at vanilla linger at the finish along with a strong botanical verve.

Inspired by the spectacular Cape Palliser on the southernmost tip of the North Island, Lighthouse is one of New Zealand’s oldest craft gins. Distiller Rachel Hall is the custodian of a recipe perfected over many years that includes nine botanicals twice distilled and then perfectly blended with water filtering from high in the Remutaka Ranges and emerging in a spring at Palliser Bay.

Alc: 42%

1 x Lighthouse Mt Difficulty Pinot Noir Barrel Aged Gin (700ml)

A light, floral and citrus gin with a hint of Central Otago thyme and red berries.

Lighthouse Gin has been having a couple of drinks with their mates at Mt Difficulty, and that led to some experimentation. Mt Difficulty’s Chief Winemaker, Greg Lane, kindly sent Lighthouse Distiller Rachel Hall a couple of their finest French oak barrels, and Rachel got to work.

Lighthouse Mt Difficulty Barrel Aged Gin is handcrafted with Lighthouse Gin’s signature botanicals and natural spring water filtered by the Remutaka Ranges. They rest the gin in Mt Difficulty barrels returned from five years' service to their iconic Central Otago Pinot Noir.

Sip neat or top with tonic and a slice of navel orange. For a perfect summer serve, mix 30ml of Lighthouse Mt Difficulty Barrel Aged Gin and 30ml of red vermouth in a tumbler glass. Top with Peach & Ginger sparkling water. Garnish with a dehydrated orange slice and wild thyme.

Alc: 45%
