Our Land, formerly known as Our Land is Alive, is excited to announce a unique collaboration with 1919 Distilling, one of New Zealand's most celebrated craft distilleries, to create an exclusive new gin. This partnership reflects Our Land's commitment to celebrating and supporting local producers, bringing the very best of New Zealand's food and beverage offerings to its customers.

The new gin, crafted with locally sourced botanicals, promises to be a standout addition to Our Land's already impressive line-up of New Zealand-made products. It embodies the spirit of New Zealand, combining traditional distillation techniques with innovative flavours that capture the essence of the country.

The Our Land Gin is distinguished by its use of Kanuka, a key ingredient that has deep historical roots in New Zealand. Historically used for tea and highly sought after, Kanuka's delicate sweetness pairs perfectly with Juniper, forming the backbone of this Classic Dry gin. It is versatile enough to be enjoyed in a range of classic and contemporary cocktails.

In addition to the launch of this exclusive gin, Our Land is proud to introduce its refreshed identity. The rebranding from Our Land is Alive to simply Our Land reflects the brand's ongoing dedication to showcasing New Zealand's unique and vibrant culinary landscape.

Our Land's current menu offerings include delicious vegan options, alongside other dishes that highlight the finest local ingredients. From venison meatballs to roasted baby pumpkin, this menu caters to diverse palates while remaining true to Our Land's ethos of supporting local suppliers and promoting sustainable practices.

Our Land invites everyone to come and experience the new gin and current menu. With every sip and bite, guests will be supporting New Zealand's local economy and enjoying the rich flavours that make this country unique.
