It has been bought by Bacardi (which won't win it any points here) but is still made in New Zealand. It boasts 9 different botanicals, including 2 "traditional Maori medicinal herbs" - manuka berries & kawakawa leaves. The others are juniper berries (of course), coriander seeds, orris root, angelica, sweet orange, lemon peels, and gentian root. It's been around for a few years, but I didn't really find anything here about it here. Has anyone tried it or recommend any drinks to try it in? I haven't heard of it but, if Bacardi bought it it was a threat. It must be good.
