Mānuka Honey infused with Whisky Jar and Packaging from the The Southerly New Zealand

Twenty of the country’s top chefs and mixologists were given our whisky-infused Mānuka Honey to spark their creativity. The result? A rare and revealing glimpse inside the bustling bistros, luxury lodges and roof-top bars where culinary magic happens.

What followed was nothing short of extraordinary, from confident elegance to bold innovation, each plate and glass has inspired unique creations with our honey at the heart of everything.

Whether crafted in the high-tech kitchens nestled amongst stunning 6-star hideaways or sculpted within the vibrant bistros and bars, our culinary challenge uncovered what true inspiration looks and tastes like in New Zealand.

Welcome to The Masters of Invention.
