1% For The Planet

To reinforce our commitment to supporting our charity partners we have signed up to the 1% For The Planet pledge, an agreement to donate a minimum of 1% of our sales (not just from profit) to environmental good causes.

But hey, we say why stop at 1%! We currently donate over 4% of our annual turnover to our charity partners, to help them in their work in protecting New Zealand's native species and wild places.

Whilst we support Eastern Whio Link and their work with Blue Duck, we are currently in talks with another charity partner with links to Black Robins. So watch this space...

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.
