What Makes our Vodka Special?

100% NZ MADE INGREDIENTS

Every bottle of spirits we produce has been proudly made using only New Zealand made ingredients, locally sourced from around the lower north island. We believe Good Bones is the first to do this.

Each batch of our spirits is made using its own individual blend of ingredients. Here on our site, you can explore what went into the batch that you are purchasing, and where it came from.

ZERO WASTE

Each bottle of Good Bones has been produced with a zero waste mindset, we produce our alcohol with every last usable piece of the food waste we acquire leaving nothing behind. Locally sourced from the bakeries and manufacturers that support our community.
