Description
Wild Rain Original Gin 40% 700ml is distilled on New Zealand’s rugged West Coast at Reefton Distilling Co., where the region’s wild weather and pristine rainwater shape every batch. This contemporary gin balances classic juniper with subtle warmth from pink peppercorn and green cardamom, creating a gently spiced profile that sets it apart from traditional London Dry styles. At 40% ABV, it delivers smooth, approachable character with enough botanical complexity to satisfy discerning palates.

Nose: Juniper leads with soft piney notes, followed by warming cardamom and a hint of floral complexity from the rainforest-inspired botanical selection.
Palate: Creamy texture carries balanced juniper forward, with pink peppercorn adding gentle heat and citrus undertones brightening the mid-palate. The cardamom creates subtle spice without overwhelming the classic gin foundation.
Finish: Clean and warming, with lingering spice and a whisper of forest botanicals that reflect its West Coast origins.
This gin excels in a classic Gin & Tonic with premium tonic water and a citrus twist, where the spiced botanicals shine through carbonation. It holds up beautifully in a Negroni, where the cardamom complements Campari’s bitterness, and brings interesting depth to a Martini for those who appreciate contemporary twists on timeless serves. The subtle spice profile also makes it a strong candidate for Aviation cocktails.
Perfect for gin enthusiasts seeking New Zealand-made craft spirits with distinctive botanical character, and an excellent gift for anyone who appreciates contemporary gin styles with a sense of place.
