TAHU

We had such a great response to last week's Rutland 'Gin of the Week', Whanganui's own TAHU Gin, we've decided to feature it for another week!
Our best-selling 'Gin of the Week' yet, this gin is truly something special bringing it's own distinctive notes whilst staying firm to traditional flavours.
Juniper forward with botanicals such as kaffir lime, coriander and angelica root adding layers of citrus and subtle spice that shine through superbly.
Served with Weirdly Normal Classic Dry tonic & fresh lime.

This is part of our park's intensive safety measures we have put in place during the Covid 19 outbreak in New Zealand to keep our guests, staff and families as safe as possible.
