Pokeno
Pokeno Virgin Oak
From New Zealand’s largest dedicated single malt distillery comes this bold expression, matured entirely in virgin American oak casks. Pōkeno, situated in the lush North Island just south of Auckland, has quickly gained a reputation for producing whiskies of depth and vibrancy, shaped by the region’s pure water and dynamic climate.
The Virgin Oak bottling showcases the distillery’s spirit at its most powerful and expressive. Fresh oak delivers layers of vanilla, caramel, and warming spice, while the rich malt backbone adds balance and length. A true reflection of Pōkeno’s ambition to craft world-class whisky with a distinctly New Zealand character.
