Pokeno Discovery Single Malt New Zealand Whisky 70cl

Pōkeno Discovery New Zealand Single Malt


A Voyage of Flavor: The Rich Harmony of the Waikato


Step into a world of "vibrant" complexity with Pōkeno Discovery. While the Origin expression focuses on the purity of the spirit, Discovery is "engineered" to showcase the art of the blend. This "modern masterpiece" is a "spectacular" marriage of spirits matured in first-fill bourbon, Oloroso sherry, and Pedro Ximénez (PX) sherry casks.


The result is a "luscious" and "chocolatey" single malt that is "positively brimming" with depth. It is "built to impress," offering a "sophisticated charm" that makes it an "excellent choice" for neat sipping or for "upgrading" your favorite cocktails. With its "unwavering commitment to flavor," Pōkeno Discovery is a "bold statement" that proves New Zealand is a "vibrant energy" in the global whisky scene.


The Art of Discovery: A Triple Cask Marriage


Pōkeno Discovery is "engineered" for richness, utilizing a "stunning and functional" wood program:




  • First-Fill Bourbon Casks: Provide the "perfect foundation" of "vanilla" and "warm oak."




  • Oloroso Sherry Casks: Impart "sophisticated charm" and savory depth with notes of "allspice" and "warm spices."




  • PX Sherry Casks: The "secret" to its "luscious" sweetness, adding "sticky, sweet layers" of "dried figs" and "treacle."




  • Waikato Maturation: The unique sub-tropical climate of New Zealand's North Island accelerates the "rich and thick" extraction of flavors, making it "expressive" and "inviting."

Official Tasting Notes

Prepare your palate for a "luscious" and "decadent" journey through dark fruit and cocoa:

  • Nose: An "inviting" bouquet of cocoa nibs, dried figs, and cherries. You’ll find a "smidge" of treacle and a warming touch of cinnamon that is "positively brimming" with aroma.

  • Palate: A "full-bodied" and "creamy" entry featuring warm oak and vanilla. This is perfectly balanced by cocoa powder, candied orange peel, and "mounds of warm spices."

  • Finish: A sophisticated and "lasting" conclusion where dried raisins and allspice linger, providing a "rich and thick" trail that "stands the test of time."
