About

Clark Lane Distillery handcrafts premium gin in Hamilton using native botanicals like Piko Piko fern and crystal-clear spring water, offering small-batch gins that capture the distinctive flavours of Aotearoa.

At Clark Lane Distillery, every bottle tells a story of craftsmanship, character, and connection. From their home in Hamilton, they handcraft small-batch gins that capture the native flavours of New Zealand, from the earthy notes of Kawa, to the smooth, mellow warmth of Mānuka, to the perfectly balanced, award-winning Piko Gin.


Each drop begins with crystal-clear spring water from the slopes of Mt Pirongia and botanicals carefully chosen to reflect the land they love. The results are gins that are beautifully balanced, refreshingly distinct, and made to be shared, whether you’re mixing the perfect cocktail or sipping it neat at sunset.


What started as a few friends experimenting (and laughing) on a quiet Waikato street has become one of New Zealand’s most exciting small distilleries, proudly creating world-class, award-winning gin with a local twist.
