In the dense forests of Fiordland lives the Tawaki, or Fiordland Crested Penguin. She’s one of the world’s rarest penguins — and an epic swimmer. Some Tawaki were recently observed swimming halfway to Antarctica in a couple of weeks. The champion of the group went 7,000km!

We’re not sure what oceanic delicacies are worth swimming that far for, but we do know that as a seabird, her diet may also include plastic. By 2050, 99% of seabird species will be ingesting plastic, the worst of it in the Tasman Sea — our moana.

Cool Cucumber, a limited edition gin for the coolest of gin lovers. Not only does the aloe from the cucumber lend a cooling effect to your gin, it's also brings a fresh, aromatic quality to your next G&T. Who knew a vegetable with 96% water content can be so exciting?

Don't just cool down this summer with any old gin. Be cucumber cool and help keep our coastlines clean.

This is the second release in our Be Good Do Good, Sustainable Coastlines gin series. Scroll further down to find out more about this project, and the artist we've collaborated with. Limited edition prints of this Tawaki design by Component are available here
