A reminder that all our remaining copper stills and distillation kits are 20% off.

And if your perfect still isn't in stock, you can pre-order with the code 'order26' and still receive a 15% discount.

We'll be ordering our next shipment of stills from our coppersmiths in Porto as soon as we can, to get our timing right for delivery before the end of the year. Pre-ordering is a good way to plan ahead and get some pricing certainty - https://mailchi.mp/1d0a4f34055c/stainless-10966855

Workshop with us in Auckland and Waiheke!

If you have not yet been to an Alembics workshop we have two pretty special events lined up for March and April, and you don't need to have any previous experience with aromatics or distilling to attend either of them.

7th March we have Gin at Highwic, located in Auckland's Newmarket, close to public transport links and with tons of parking.

Anzac weekend (25 &26 April) is the alchemical wonder that is Plant to Perfume - https://mailchi.mp/25d57d4a8d2d/xx-argjp2iq14-10965897

Fermented, carbonated sodas in glorious colours and flavours, and mountains of lemon vebena for distilling, to make some botanical martinis. - https://mailchi.mp/f269886e46ac/xx-argjp2iq14-10965622

How many times a day do we wish for smell-o-vision to share what we’re doing?

We have a group for a Lab Day today, and this armload of citrusy and herbaceous botanicals is so refreshing. A welcome pleasure on these hot days.
