SPIRIT FILE #01 — Small bird. BIG personality.

Pīwakawaka are curious little characters.

They’re known for flying surprisingly close to people, sometimes within just a metre or two, and may even follow you.

Basically, the most inquisitive bird in the neighbourhood.

That’s spirit.

Curious. Playful. Always close by.

The Pīwakawaka has long inspired New Zealanders—and it inspired one of our favourite gins too.

As proud partners of Forest & Bird, the organisers of Bird of the Year, Dr Beak is proud to be backing this spirited little native bird.

It’s almost time to give this remarkable native bird the recognition it deserves.

Stay tuned!

It might be too grey outside for rainbows, but inside the distillery we’re pretty excited about our rainbow of cables.

The overhead cables might not look like much yet, but it’s another piece of the puzzle that’s bringing our new distillery one step closer to reality.
