Sandymount Distillery uses the resources around it to create premium hand-crafted spirits.
Returning to his childhood backyard on the Otago Peninsula, Distiller Richard Wilson knew he’d found the perfect property for his distillery at the Sandymount Estate. With spring water bubbling to the surface just up the hill and an abundance of native flora outside the door, Sandymount recipes make full use of the surrounding environment. As well as the wild botanicals, Richard has planted additional species and an orchard, ensuring innovative flavour profiles for a long time to come.
