Waiheke Whisky Fairlight - International Blend

Waiheke Whisky's first-ever blend of Waiheke Single Malt with premium unpeated world whiskies. Created with the help of master distiller Alan Winchester ex-Glenlivet.

Skillfully blended, Fairlight shares its name with the world's first music synthesizer. It is the synthesis of the two hemispheres that went into this bottling; in the spirit of all WW names, it has a big backstory.

The label is different from Waiheke's single malts, to distinguish it as a blend. It refers to the shape of the entrance of their distillery and the logo embossed on the bottle. The bottle is presented unboxed.

Why a blend? Fairlight is a limited experiment in mixing old world and new world whiskies. It also helps them fund their distillery expansion and bridges the gap till their new single malts hit the market.

Cocktail Mix

There's more than one way to enjoy a whisky and one of the things we're all about is expanding horizons. So we're also including a cocktail mix made specifically to pair with the Waiheke Fairlight and create a delicious cocktail.

Serious Popcorn Dark Chocolate Drizzle

Marrying real Belgian chocolate with sweet & salty popcorn. Made using only organic popcorn, minimum 55% cocoa chocolate, organic coconut oil, can cane sugar. Hand popped, seasoned, and drizzled to foodie perfection, treat yourself to something sweet without the guilt.

The dark chocolate and salt of the Serious Popcorn can cut through the strong smokey notes of this month's peated whisky, adding richness and depth.

Waiheke Whisky Glencairn

A Waiheke Whisky Glencairn tasting glass. Designed specifically for whisky, the wide bowl of these glasses allows for the fullest appreciation of the whisky's colour while the tapering mouth captures and focuses the aroma on the nose.

An excellent way to enjoy a dram or collect and display for your whisky history or favourite brands.
