New Zealand Whisky
Kiwi whisky isn’t a new concept. Willowbank distillery opened in the 1970s and remained in business for over two decades. Seagrams purchased the distillery in the ‘80s though and then sold it to Fosters – yes, of ‘Australian for beer’ fame – which ceased production and sold off the equipment in 1997. There is a burgeoning craft whisky scene at the moment, with the likes of Thomson and Puhoi distillery, so keep an eye out for the future.
