Grapefruitcello is a hand-crafted, Italian-style liqueur made from ripe New Zealand grapefruit, presenting deep, bright citrus flavour balanced with floral sweetness for a refreshing after-dinner sip.
Matahui Distillery’s Grapefruitcello is meticulously crafted in small batches using traditional methods to highlight the vibrant character of New Zealand red grapefruit. Harvested at peak ripeness to amplify aromatic zest oils, the liqueur delivers a deep, pure grapefruit experience with balanced sweetness and floral-citrus notes. As an award-winning spirit honoured with a Double Gold medal at the 2024 NZ Spirit Awards, it’s best served chilled neat, over ice, or as a vivid cocktail component. All-natural with no artificial additives, its flavours evolve over time and benefit from being stored cold or in dark conditions to maintain freshness.
