The Cardrona Distillery & Museum - Classic Tour
Experience the traditional distillery process from New Zealand’s premium, hand-crafted spirits distillery and museum.
Tucked away high in the Cardrona Valley you’ll discover a haven for connoisseurs of fine spirits. The Cardrona is a small, artisan Single Malt distillery, holding up the values of spirits made properly, from scratch. And as they say, the proof is in the...whisky.
Their two hand-beaten copper pot Whisky stills were made by 4th generation coppersmiths, Forsyths of Scotland and their vodka, gin & orange liqueur still is a one-of-a-kind piece of precision engineering from Germany.
No detail is overlooked in the time-honoured method of creating the ultimate spirit. Join them on the Classic Tour of the distillery and share in their passionate process.

Very interesting tour in a beautiful setting
I went on this tour with my partner Luke who is a big whiskey fan. I am not much of a whiskey drinker but we had a great guide who made learning about the distillation process really interesting. The tasters were great, I was particularly surprised by the vodka- single malt really does make a huge difference. The setting is beautiful too, really peaceful- if you have time grab a drink and relax in one of the chairs outside overlooking the valley.

Highly recommend
The staff and tour was amazing, they went above any expectations we had on this tour. Their products are top shelf. Wish this place was closer to home in Australia.
