Kiwis deserve better, which is why we’re fighting for power affordability for all of us. But we can’t do it alone.

Join us in the Revolt to bring power prices down, by signing the petition to demand that the Government reforms NZ’s broken electricity market. #Powergate ✊🏾 ✊🏿 ✊🏼 ✊🏽

Gin by name, gin by nature

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Not only is gin in the name for Sean Juniper, he’s hoping it will become his retirement plan too.

The North Canterbury man was born with the same last name as gin’s key ingredient. Ever since the spirit became a successful side hustle, he is asked repeatedly whether he has changed his name.

“It’s the reason I am making gin. If my surname was Mead I’d probably be making mead.”
