Humdinger Dry Gin — our multi-award-winning New Zealand classic Distilled in small batches in Geraldine with Canterbury barley, Humdinger Dry Gin is smooth, rich and beautifully balanced — the gin we built the distillery on, and the one our regulars keep coming back for. On the palate: subtle citrus opens, classic juniper follows, then a long, warming finish of liquorice root and nutmeg spice. The barley gives it a full-bodied character that holds its own — neat or mixed. Perfect serve: pour over plenty of ice with a premium tonic and a twist of orange. Cocktail pairings That backbone makes Dry Gin a natural in a classic G&T or a Martini. For something local, try the Oasis — Dry Gin with Barkers apple & elderflower and soda, made with our Geraldine neighbours — or explore more Dry Gin cocktails.
