Reefton Distilling Co.

Every gold-rush town needs a still, and Reefton's got a goodie in the form of this operation that makes use of foraged botanicals and spring water sourced from the surrounding mountains. Book an hour-long tour or call in for a free tasting of its signature firewater, including the excellent Little Biddy gin, Wild Rain vodka, and Tayberry and Blueberry liqueurs. You'll have to wait a few years for the whisky.
