One year after the popular limited release of Petey in 2025, Petey 2.0 introduces a distinctly different smoky character. Crafted from medium-peated, heavily peated and mānuka-smoked Canterbury-grown malt, it is matured in ex-Bourbon, ex-Pinot Noir and ex-Sherry casks. This limited release reveals different expressions as it rests in the glass, inviting you to slow down and discover how its character develops over time.

Marking ten years since our distillery was founded in 2016, Ōtautahi Nine represents a milestone in the Divergence Whisky story. Our oldest single malt whisky to date, it brings together nine years of maturation and our founding ambition to create whisky in Ōtautahi Christchurch that captures the natural gifts of Canterbury. Crafted from 100% Canterbury-grown malted barley and distilled at The Spirits Workshop Distillery, Ōtautahi Nine is matured for nine years in new European oak and ex-New Zealand Tawny casks. Now joining our core range, it is an expression shaped by time, place and the curiosity that has guided us from the beginning.

A rare single cask, cask strength release finished in barrels that once held Curiosity Gin Pinot Barrel Sloe — winner of the title New Zealand's Best Sloe Gin multiple times over. This whisky matured for 7 years in Virgin Oak, followed by over 1 year of finishing in a Sloe Gin barrel. The result is a whisky of extraordinary character: the familiar depth of our Canterbury single malt lifted by the wild berry soul of that award-winning gin. Bottled at full cask strength, undiluted and non-chill filtered. Deeply amber in colour, the nose is full of hazel nuts, toffee, vanilla cream, and summer berries over dark caramel and malt. The taste is rich and mouth-filling with plum, toffee, and chocolate malt. The finish is long and reminiscent of nuts, berries and dark cocoa.‍
