It’s like tasting the essence of New Zealand… minus the sheep and the rugby players.
Nestled in the heart of Auckland's Bombay Hills, a hidden gem called the Pōkeno Whisky Company carries the potential of a full-blown New Zealand Whisky revolution. It started as a labor of love of one passionate guy called Matt John, who boasts a quarter of a century of experience in the global Whisky industry. Armed with a great vision and his wife Celine by his side, they embarked on a journey to create unparalleled Single Malts using only the finest New Zealand ingredients. Their Spirits are crafted with the purest spring water drawn from the surrounding volcanic hills, which is not their only environmental advantage — the harmonic unification of unique sub-tropical climate and geological composition also affects the speediness of the maturation process. Pōkeno is the embodiment of passion, expertise, and artistry that offers an opportunity to experience the unique flavors and craftsmanship that marries the culture and climate of New Zealand.
Their Single Malt Whiskey is made from the finest locally sourced barley, resulting in a dram that’s unique, smooth, and totally Kiwi. They really let their Spirit take it easy — it’s not rushed through fermentation and distillation, which allows it to bring out its full body and rich flavor. Matured only in first-fill bourbon casks, it boasts a persuading blend of citrus, honey, grapefruit, and creamy toffee. So, raise a glass to The Land of the Long White Cloud and one seriously tasty Whisky!
