THE STORY

Deborah Caldwell, founder and owner of STORM is a big fan of craft gin, so much so that she decided to launch her own. Not one to wait around, she quickly set about finding a quality NZ distilling partner to help her create her perfect gin. The gin had to have a citrus burst (lemon and lime), be good enough to sip on its own and to provide a canvas of a perfect G&T. Oh, one other thing, it had to scream "I need another". She teamed up with The National Distillery Company and soon after her mouth-watering gin was born. The gin is named after one of Deb's favourite animals, the Black Wolf, who are fiercely loyal, family orientated, playful and strong - traits Deb loves.

She loves her gin, so do we here at COVE 27, and she thinks many of her STORM customers will too. You get the feeling this story is just beginning, watch this space.

THE NATIONAL DISTILLING COMPANY

Much like the timeless, quirky Art Deco building they are located in, The National Distillery spirits are made to stand the test of time, with balanced, complementary flavours and pure ingredients that inspire taste buds while honouring classic distilling traditions.

Distilling up to 4000 litres a day, they take the natural abundance of New Zealand botanicals and the highest quality raw materials to create spirits so delicious you could drink them straight from the bottle. It is their unique duality between old and new that defines them and results in the finest range of copper distilled gins, vodkas, rums and whiskeys available.
