The World’s first
Cannabis-Infused Gin
Hemp Gin from the Cannabis Company officially arrives into New Zealand.
GIN DISTILLED WITH TERPENES
Like Christchurch, The Myrcene contains the perfect balance of the earthy and the fruity.
That’s why we selected it as the backbone of our Hemp Gin, granting the name pride-of-place on our initial foray into the spirit world. Myrcene is the most abundant terpene found in cannabis, terpenes being the primary constituents of the essential oils in many types of medicinal plants and flowers. Small-batch crafted in Healesville, this complex gin represents the marriage of past and future. The world’s first hemp-infused gin distilled with terpenes – The Myrcene.
Bubblegum aromas blend with lavender, pine forest and sage. Soft tones of violet interact on the palate with woodland flavours of rosemary and resin, cloves and woody spices. With a long complex finish and a rich mouthfeel, The Myrcene is perfect paired with a premium tonic. Try it poured over a wedge of lemon with a sprig of fresh rosemary to really bring out those piney aromas.
MYRCENE IS THE MOST ABUNDANT TERPENE FOUND IN CANNABIS
Terpenes work with other cannabinoids such as CBD and THC, creating a union of compounds that achieve better results as a group than they would in isolation – an outcome known as “the entourage effect”.

MYRCENE & JUNIPER: A MATCH MADE IN MELBOURNE
Terpenes work with other cannabinoids such as CBD and THC, creating a union of compounds that achieve better results as a group than they would in isolation – an outcome known as “the entourage effect”.
Used in high concentrations such as this, terpenes are an increasingly sought-after commodity due to their therapeutic value in dietary health and wellness supplements. When cannabis is utilised for its health-giving properties, it works best as a whole plant therapy featuring more than just isolated cannabinoids. This is why we’ve carefully crafted this gin using select elements from the hurd, bast and seed of the cannabis plant to produce the moulin and brou used in our distillation.
Also found in hops, Myrcene is known to compose up to 50% of the total terpene content found in individual strains of cannabis, with Myrcene strains reputed to produce joyful and euphoric effects alongside an overall feeling of relaxation. Myrcene is perhaps the most highly-valued terpene due to its ability to ease symptoms of chronic pain and inflammation.
WHY MIX GIN WITH CANNABIS?
Our decision to select gin as the perfect spirit to distil using cannabis was strongly influenced by an early 17th century gin-making practice.
