new new zealand, this & that
I didn’t have many new New Zealand bottles to show you last time but am making up for that this
time. The cover shows two new gins which look to be in the same bottles but the Curious is 50ml and
the Dr Beak 100ml. The first is one of a set of four found by Erica Mulder. We had the four original
Curiosity bottles on the cover of miNiZ124 but they now have a new label. Although I much prefer the
original label it is still an essential purchase for me to add to my NZ Bottle collection. Frank Wynn
found the website for Dr Beak, https://drbeak.nz/. This is a new company based in Marlborough but
at $18.50 the bottle is over priced. Talking of Frank, I forgot the show you the two Thomson minis,
that Frank found four months ago, in miNiZ128.
Ken Chin found the two cocktail
bottles, J.M.R. Cocktail & Co
Chocolate and Espresso Martinis.
These add to the four he found for us
to show in miNiZ120. Both are 100ml.
Erica Mulder found a set of three bottles from Broken
Heart Spirits of Queenstown. I showed you the original
Broken Heart gin in miNiZ117 and, unfortunately, the one
in the set is identical. The rum and vodka are new though.
