We didn’t do any whisky tasting, but I did have a hot toddy- and it was the best I’ve ever had. The location is very quaint and the service good. I highly recommend!

Lovely surprise

I actually have to admit I had never heard of New Zealand Whisky before which is embarrassing so when I saw the sign I decided to go in and have a look. It's a cosy little room and a small selection of whiskies (5 in...More

Expensive but so nice

A few years ago I was not into Whiskey, but this company has changed my mind. Pop in for a quick dram and try out.

Whiskey Company

Went to see all the different types of whiskey. Whiskey tasting and lots of history. The owner bought the whole stock of the factory when it closed so will run out one day of all these different types. Still reasonably priced. Very informative too.

Good Whiskey

We shared the tasting tray of four different whiskeys. All good, but different. Easy to share with amount given. Might be too much for one person, unless you are a big whiskey drinker. Great historic building to enjoy the tastes!
