Sandymount Distillery

Otago, Dunedin

About

New Zealand’s first certified carbon-neutral distillery, crafting small-batch spirits inspired by the Otago Peninsula.

Sandymount Distillery is situated on a five hectare property overlooking Hooper's Inlet on the eastern side of Otago Peninsula in Dunedin. The distillery is proudly New Zealand's first certified Net Carbon Zero distillery and is powered by a 20-panel solar array. All of the native botanicals are sourced from the forest on the property. The water is drawn from a spring that bubbles to the surface on the hill just above the distillery.

Sandymount products are made in a bespoke 300L copper pot still and a 120L copper and stainless hybrid still." Sandymount Distillery is dedicated to storytelling, sustainability and connection to the land, all of which can be found within the range of gins
