Whio Awareness Month

For every bottle we sell we make a $1 donation to our charity partners but for the month of March we will DOUBLE the donation to $2 per bottle.

Eastern Whio Link is a hunter and fisherman-led conservation project in the Waioeka Gorge that work tirelessly laying traps to catch whio's predators like stoats and wild cats.

From buying new traps to keeping current traps lured and gassed, our donations have protected over 17km of river, the equivalent to 5 pairs of whio home ranges.

Our Premium Spirits

 

Buy direct from our distillery

From our Bay of Plenty distillery and under the watchful eye of our German master distiller, we handcraft and batch-distill our international award winning premium NZ spirits Black Robin Gin and Blue Duck Vodka. Launched in 2013 to critical acclaim, you can now buy Black Robin Gin and Blue Duck Vodka direct from the distillery with freight free in NZ for all orders over $80. And if you're looking for the perfect gift idea then why not add in some premium barware, cocktail equipment, a cocktail kit or even a cocktail recipe book.

 

Introducing our new charity partner: Eastern Whio Link

Established in 2020, the Eastern Whio Link is a hunter and fishermen-led conservation project, located in the upper reaches of the Waioeka Gorge with a goal to protect the remaining population of Blue Duck, the nationally vulnerable species.

By aiding in their recovery, they are helping enable a breeding population to establish in the area and disperse into surrounding watersheds.

We have also decided to DOUBLE our donation to $1 with every bottle sold as well as offering an additional $5 for every bottle we sell directly from this website.

All funds raised from sales of Blue Duck Vodka will go directly to Eastern Whio Link, whilst funds raised through sales of Black Robin Gin will be held in trust whilst we form a partnership with a charity directly linked to their survival.
