Overview:
Vermouth #2 is a celebration of New Zealand’s natural heritage, crafted with a red base wine of Syrah and sweetened, then fortified with distillates of Kerikeri Orange, Totara, Kahikatea, Matai, Kauri, Northern Rata, and Kanuka Flowers. Enhanced by the barks of these native trees, it encapsulates the sensory magic of the Puketi Forest—an inspiration drawn from countless foraging adventures through its verdant trails.
Enjoy this enchanting vermouth neat, over ice with a twist of orange peel, or as the star ingredient in a sophisticated cocktail. Pair it with 1/3 Campari and 1/3 Little Biddy Gin over ice for a bold, unforgettable sip.
Tasting Notes:
Warm, spiced aromas mingle with the sweetness of ripe orange and the resinous depth of native wood and florals. On the palate, notes of candied citrus and earthy forest undertones give way to a lingering, velvety finish with just a hint of floral brightness. Perfectly balanced and deeply evocative, this vermouth is both versatile and distinctively New Zealand.
