Moonlight Creek ‘Pioneer’, 700ml
Moonlight Creek ‘Pioneer’ single malt whisky is the first expression in our Legacy Collection, and is a limited release of only 1,000 individually numbered bottles.
Pioneer offers an early glimpse of the spirit resting in our casks; vibrant, precise and shaped by New Zealand’s West Coast.
There will only ever be one ‘first’ and we are excited to share this covetable collectors’ item to those fortunate enough to secure one of the few remaining bottles. Packaged in an exceptional box, ready for gifting, or joining your private collection. Tasting Notes
