DISTILLED AND PERFECT

Based in Central Otago, Broken Heart Spirits distill a range of gin, vodka, whiskey and rum. Be sure to visit their gin garden next time you are in the region. In recognition of their 10-year anniversary they are releasing a collectorsedition vintage Weinbrand, a spirit crafted by distilling Central Otago pinot noir wine then rested in chardonnay oak barrels for 16 years. Master distiller Joerg really does have vision with this beautiful golden-hued brandy showcasing aromas of brown spices and a whisper of citrus, a satin cream textured mouthfeel with flavours of almond and spice, smooth warming alcohol and a very long, perfect finish. Price 700ml, $290. shop.brokenheartspirits.com
