"Gin that tastes like gin": Kiwi distillery inducted into prestigious London guild

A gin distillery at the bottom of the country is earning top-shelf recognition. 

Bluff Distillery's been inducted into the prestigious Gin Guild – one of the first in New Zealand to receive the honour. 

Co-founder Chris Fraser was installed as Warden Rectifier at the Lord Mayor of London's mansion earlier this month, just two years since launching the distillery. 

Fraser told Ryan Bridge there's no secret formula behind their success. 

He says it's gin that tastes like gin, as they just stick to the basics.
