Double Cheers for Weekender Gin at the NZ Small Batch Gin Awards

We're thrilled to share some exciting news from the 2026 NZ Small Batch Gin Awards!

Our Weekender Peach Gin has been awarded Gold, while our bold and brave  Weekender Jalapeño Lemon Gin has taken home a Bronze Medal.

This win is especially exciting for our Jalapeño Lemon Gin, marking its very first award in this competition and it's been recognised for its unique balance of fresh citrus, warming jalapeño and smooth botanical finish.

For our Peach Gin, this Gold Medal is even more special. It's the second time this fan favourite has been recognised at the NZ Small Batch Gin Awards, proving that great flavour never goes out of style.

The NZ Small Batch Gin Awards celebrate New Zealand's finest artisan gins, with winners determined through consumer-led blind tastings that showcase the very best locally crafted spirits.

A huge thank you to everyone who continues to support Weekender Gin. Whether you've been with us since the beginning or you're about to discover your new favourite gin, these awards inspire us to keep creating flavour-forward spirits that are made to be shared.

Here's to many more weekends worth celebrating! 🥂
