Distillery Information

How did a Kiwi farmer from a teetotal family fall in love with whisky and shape a country’s category? This is the story of Cardrona Distillery. Desiree Reid is something of a seasoned distillery traveller. Her journey began out of passion but eventually became valuable research. Her first was Edradour on her 21st birthday with her mum. Jameson’s and the Koval Distillery in Chicago followed later, and from there she was hooked. "I travelled many times for the next few years to trawl through the distilleries, big and small, many with multiple repeat visits,” she says. Reid's love of whisky didn't initially lead to a career, however. For years she was successfully running a farm. It wasn’t until early 2011 when Reid made a list of the things she wanted to achieve that she realised her heart was in whisky. By May 2013 she had sold her farm and moved to Wanaka to find the distillery site at Cardrona.  The valley between Queenstown and Wanaka is something, full of stunning vistas and flanked by two ancient mountain ranges with an abundance of clear water and an alpine environment ideal for maturation. It's there she founded the distillery. A New Zealand Fellow of the Institute of Architecture, Sarah Scott, was drafted in to design the distillery as she understood Reid’s vision and made it come to life. Still makers Forsyths of Rothes also helped a lot in guiding the design process.
