Northland's Black Collar Distillery has won a round of medals after triumphing at the International Wine and Spirits Competition in London.
The Bay of Islands distillery picked up gold in the vodka category, scoring an impressive 95 out of 100 for its Black Collar Vodka, and seeing off a host of international competitors.
Black Collar was the only New Zealand brand to strike gold in the London event.
The distillery completed a hat-trick of medals when its Black Collar Gin and Black Collar Rum, both making International Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC) debuts, were awarded bronze in their categories.
