Boysenberry Liqueur

A handcrafted liqueur made from sun-ripened Tasman boysenberries, offering a rich and versatile flavour profile.

Kiwi Spirit Distillery's Boysenberry Liqueur is a testament to traditional European distilling techniques, adapted with New Zealand's unique produce. Crafted from handpicked boysenberries grown in the Tasman region—one of only three countries cultivating this rare berry—the liqueur captures the essence of the fruit's rich, sweet-tart flavour.

The process begins with creating a simple wine from the berries, which is then distilled into schnapps and further refined into a liqueur. This meticulous method results in a smooth, luxurious spirit that balances sweetness with depth. The boysenberries used are often those that are cosmetically imperfect but bursting with flavour, ensuring minimal waste and maximum taste.

Versatile in its applications, the Boysenberry Liqueur can be enjoyed neat, drizzled over desserts like chocolate cake or vanilla ice cream, or mixed into cocktails such as the Kir Royal or Boysenberry Buck. Its deep berry notes also complement sparkling wines and various dessert recipes, making it a staple for both casual enjoyment and gourmet creations.
