We are proud to be the first B Corp certified distillery in Aotearoa New Zealand. This journey was over 18 months of documentation in an effort to verify the environmentally sustainable and socially positive practices that we incorporate into our business. We could not be more proud to join this incredible community of global businesses contributing to the B Lab collective vision for an inclusive, equitable and regenerative economy.

A Whole New Look.
For the past few months we have been hard at work putting together a whole new look for Kākāpō Distillery and we could not be happier with the results. Read more about our new 100% post consumer waste bottle in this great write up from Tash McGill at More Good Drinks Here.
A worthy Cause.
We are proud to support Kākāpō Recovery and the incredible work they do to bring the Kākāpō back from the brink of extinction. Thanks to their efforts, the Kākāpō numbers are the strongest they have been in decades. You can learn more about their work here.
The Best Gin and Tonic in NZ.
At the 2025 NZ Spirit Awards, our Kawakawa and pink peppercorn gin won the inaugural trophy for the Best Gin and Tonic Pairing in NZ. Sponsored by Fever-Tree, over 130 gins were tested with their Indian tonic, and we are proud to have come out on top.
