Description

Pōkeno Origin is a New Zealand single malt whisky, made from 100% local barley and pure volcanic spring water. It is matured exclusively in first-fill bourbon casks, resulting in a sweet, rounded, and fruit-forward whisky. The distillery, founded in 2017, is located on the North Island of New Zealand and is known for its long fermentation times and slow distillation.
