Rifters Quartz Gin 700ml

Rifters Quartz Gin is a handcrafted New Zealand gin made in small batches in Arrowtown, Central Otago. Inspired by the wild alpine landscapes and gold mining history of the region, it’s distilled with a thoughtful blend of 12 botanicals, including native Kawakawa, wild thyme, lemon and coriander. The result is a clean, aromatic gin with a vibrant, modern profile and a proud connection to the land it’s made from.

Bouquet
Fresh and citrus-forward with aromas of lemon peel, wild thyme, soft juniper and native herbs. There’s a light floral lift and a subtle earthiness that adds depth.

Palate
Crisp, clean and beautifully balanced. Zesty citrus notes lead, supported by gentle spice, a thread of native herb, and classic dry juniper. The texture is smooth and precise, finishing with refreshing clarity and a whisper of minerality that reflects its mountain water base.

Food Pairing
Perfect in a G&T with a slice of lemon or sprig of thyme. Also shines in a dry Martini or citrus-forward cocktails. Pair with fresh seafood, goat’s cheese, or lemony salads for a local match.

Cellaring
Best enjoyed fresh to preserve its citrus and herbaceous notes. Store sealed and upright in a cool, dark place.

Interesting Fact
The name “Rifters” is a nod to the gold prospectors who once roamed Otago’s quartz-rich mountains. Every bottle of Rifters Quartz Gin reflects the purity and rugged beauty of its Arrowtown origins, with packaging designed to be as sustainable and thoughtful as the spirit inside.
