Hastings Distillers was formed in 2019 by Kate Galloway and David Ramonteu, an inspiring couple with a background in winemaking and an artistic philosophy of production. Their award winning spirits are inspired as much by artists such as Tolstoy, Steiner and Tuwhare as by their scientific backgrounds in winemaking. The pair created the wine brands Alluviale and DaDa in a prior lifetime, before travelling through Europe and decided to marry distillation with therapeutic herbs. The result is a range of spirits using foraged, organic and biodynamic botanicals, pure organic spirit and water. Learn more about their story, taste the products and take some home from a visit.

ABOUT
From wild and beautiful Central Otago, comes New Zealand?s first artisanal wine-based
botanical Aperitivo. Created by Terra Sancta?s resident Witch, Seer and Alchemist, it is
made from the botanicals that surround our Bannockburn vineyards. ?Aperitivo? stems
from the Latin word Aperire meaning ?to open?. Designed to be consumed at the start
of either lunch or dinner as an Aperitivo, it will open you digestively and socially all
whilst providing a portal - an opening - into our special part of the world - Terra Sancta
in Bannockburn, Central Otago.
HARVEST
Foraged from Terra Sancta?s Bannockburn vineyards and surrounds during our wine
grape harvest, it expresses the character of our special part of the world at our favourite
time of year. From March through to May, botanicals of every kind are collected by the
Terra Sancta team from the vineyard, the banks of the Kawarau River and Central Otago
and stored in our winery in preparation for drying and extraction during spring.
CREATION
A result of exploration, experimentation, persistence and alchemy, the path to creation
began in 2017. With careful study and trial of over 30 medicinal and flavorful flowers,
fruits, bark, leaves, roots and seeds, the final secret blend of 16 botanicals was created in
December 2019. Each botanical extraction is prepared from scratch by Terra Sancta
before blending with the wine base. Entirely natural with no added colour. Bottled on
site at Terra Sancta under cork and wax.

Possibly the most popular brand of bitters, Angostura should be considered a must when stocking a bar of any seriousness. Made with a secret blend of tropical herbs and plants with the original intent of curing a variety of illnesses. The brand is now produced in Trinidad and the blend is still a well-kept secret. The oversized, awkward label has also become a trademark of the brand. It's said that the wrong size was ordered and everyone in the facility thought someone else would fix the mistake, no one did and the label remains.
