GIN THAT DOES WHAT IT SAYS ON THE TIN
Distilled 19,000km away from London, Bluff Gin is nevertheless our expression of a classical London Dry Gin. The bottle in your hand, however, is anything but classic.
It pays homage to the glass buoys that keep the foreign fishing nets afloat across our protected Southern Seas. Bluffys, as the locals are known, would set sail and brave Hell’s Gate, an infamous strait of open sea, to lop off these buoys, letting the nets sink into the deep blue.
Bluff Gin is a classic London Dry Gin, awarded as the best in New Zealand, Australia and even London (funny that). She's juniper-forward, with a lovely hit of salinity on the palate. Enjoy.
Southland's second gold rush
The first award show we ever entered was the Australian Gin Awards. We thought it'd be a good test to see how we measure up against the rest. We won the Best in Show Trophy - since then, we haven't looked back.
From The Gin Guide Awards in London to the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, we've collected more gold medals than we currently know what to do with.
