A colour-changing dark gin infused with bold botanicals including cardamom, cubeb berries, and horopito, inspired by a ghostly legend.
Agatha’s Tears Dark Gin is a visually striking and flavour-packed spirit named after Agatha - the legendary madam and ghost of the Waikino Hotel. This contemporary gin offers a theatrical transformation: black in the bottle, deep blue in the glass, and blush pink when mixed with tonic.
Crafted with robust botanicals like cardamom, cubeb berries, and native horopito, it delivers intense spice, menthol brightness, and a lingering finish. At 42% ABV, it’s ideal for those who love bold flavours and dramatic pours.
This small-batch gin brings storytelling, New Zealand heritage, and innovative distilling together in every sip.
