Milford 10-year-old NZWC

Once the world's southernmost whisky distillery, Willowbank Distillery stood as a testament to New Zealand's pioneering spirit in craft distillation. For over a century, this remarkable distillery harnessed the pristine meltwaters of the Southern Alps, the finest New Zealand barley, and the maritime influence of the Pacific Ocean to create whiskies of exceptional purity and elegance. Despite its celebrated legacy and unique provenance, Willowbank's journey was marked by adversity, leading to its closure after more than 100 years of operation. The NZ Whisky Collection has since acquired the distillery's complete inventory, carefully preserving these rare casks and allowing them to continue their maturation journey, ensuring that this liquid heritage lives on for future generations of whisky connoisseurs.
