Three Realms is the creation of co-founders James Linney and Tuan Tran and is born from their shared love of whisky as well as their collective experiences in Australia, New Zealand and Vietnam.  Three Realms to us represents the sky, the earth and water.  To James, this aligns with his roots in Mid Canterbury in New Zealand, particularly how the Southern Alps, the Canterbury Plains and the Pacific Ocean meet.  For Tuan, the concept also represents hard-work, ingenuity and luck.  We invite you to contemplate what the Three Realms could mean to you as you enjoy and experience our whisky.  

Three Realms is a commitment to the future, not just through creating a sustainable spirit, but through taking the creation of a raw ideal back to it’s roots.  Every bottle is painstakingly refined, from the malt that forms the foundation of our spirit, right through to delivery into your hands.  As a pair of technologists, we have leveraged the tools technology provides to create our product, but have never let it control the products destiny or the way we help you experience it. 

This event is supported by Otter Craft Distilling and Bar 26.  You are invited to enjoy their hospitality after the event concludes.  Bar 26 serves a carefully curated range of cocktails and a mouth watering menu of food.
