About

Imagination Gin is a multi-award-winning New Zealand distillery nestled in the Reikorangi Valley on the Kāpiti Coast, crafting premium gins and vodka using locally sourced botanicals and pure rainwater.

Established in 2018, Imagination Gin operates from the historic site of the pioneering Tuatara Brewery in Reikorangi, Kāpiti Coast. The distillery captures and charcoal-filters hundreds of thousands of litres of rainwater on-site, ensuring an exceptionally pure base for their spirits. Using an eight-plate fractionating still, they distill gins that reflect New Zealand's diverse landscapes, incorporating local botanicals wherever possible.

Imagination Gin's commitment to quality and innovation has earned them multiple awards, and their range showcases a variety of flavour profiles, from classic dry gins to unique infusions like Wakame Seaweed and Damson Plum & Blackberry.
