Everything Pōkeno do is driven by their goal to create one of the world’s great single malts. Batch production, long fermentation and slow distillation are just a few of the things that help make Pōkeno whisky different. As craft distillers, they are also able to focus on quality over quantity,  doing things their way, not the easy way.

Pōkeno select only the finest casks to mature their precious spirit, and the warm sub-tropical local climate accelerates its maturation and flavour development. In Pōkeno the angels do not wait.

All of this allows Pōkeno to produce single malt whisky with exceptional body and flavour; whisky that captures the pure spirit of Aotearoa New Zealand.

Pokeno Discovery celebrates their unique place in the world. Fully matured in first fill bourbon, Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez Casks, it is a rich and complex whisky, with beautiful notes of dark chocolate, black forest gateau, ripe cherries and sweet citrus, giving way to a rich, smooth and incredibly long finish.
