Broken Heart Spirits has won the title of World’s Best Pure Neutral Vodka. Representing Aotearoa (after it won the award for NZ’s best vodka in the Pure Neutral category), the Queenstown distillery went on to beat 18 other country winners for the top spot at the World Drink Awards.
Broken Heart owner and master distiller, Joerg Henkenhaf says the 40% proof product is an “outstanding drop”. It’s made from Arrowtown spring water for a pure, clean vodka with soft citrus notes.
For the second year in a row, Broken Heart’s Original Gin won New Zealand’s Best London Dry 2022 award.
The awards were judged in London at the end of February by a panel of expert distillers, consultants, buyers, mixologists and spirits afficionados.
