Air New Zealand is raising a toast to ‘A Taste of Aotearoa’, a new beverage menu featuring a curated selection of New Zealand’s finest spirits and craft beer. This menu is designed to showcase the unique craftsmanship of New Zealand’s beverage industry, offering passengers a taste of the country’s diverse flavors.
Available onboard and in select Air New Zealand lounges, the new menu features a range of products from across the country, from the south of Central Otago to the wild West Coast, Wellington, and Napier. This allows passengers to enjoy a sip from Kiwi producers representing different regions and styles.

Promoting our country’s world-class food, beverages, and producers is just one way to support Aotearoa while serving up a unique Air New Zealand experience at 30,000 feet.”
