Cruise ship season has come to an end for another year - starting up again in Springtime ☀️

One of our lovely visitors was the super talented Olivia Reid, a multimedia journalist. She wrote an article of her experience, and talked about the tour & tasting experience we offer to the tens of thousands passengers that grace our shores each year.

🌸 February is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month 🌸

At NDC, this month holds particular meaning for us. Before we tell you why, we want to let you know how you can help support the Ovarian Cancer Foundation, New Zealand.

Throughout February, Coral Gin is on special for $69.99. As always, $10 from every bottle sold is donated to the Ovarian Cancer Foundation New Zealand, helping support research, awareness, and care for women living with ovarian cancer across Aotearoa. If you want to support this cause, shop via the link in our comments.

Now, Coral's story:

Coral was a woman who knew how to make the most of each day. She was someone who prioritised family and friends, and who loved a really good G&T. When Coral was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, she quickly discovered how little awareness there was around a disease with vague symptoms and a low public profile.

Rather than letting that be the end of the story, Coral made it a beginning.

She worked closely with us on her ultimate project, studying botanicals, joining blending sessions, and shaping the brief for what became a beautiful, classic London-dry style gin with a generous citrus finish.

Coral has since passed away, but her legacy lives on, in this gin, and in the support it continues to generate for other women and families affected by ovarian cancer.

By choosing Coral Gin this month, you’re helping turn her story into ongoing impact. Thank you for your support 🙏
