The TIKI is a hand carved Māori treasure which when gifted bestows good fortune and love on others. We craft our wines with that same spirit in mind.

Our Land - Our Taonga - Our Treasure

There's something magical about Aotearoa (New Zealand) that draws you in. It’s a mix between it’s spellbinding landscapes, the bounty of natural resources and the generosity of the people that makes this country one of the most beautiful and precious places on earth.We see ourselves as the guardians of this precious land, it's our job to keep our footprint small to make sure everyone gets to experience the magic of Aotearoa the same way we have.

Our Name

As well as Tiki honouring Royce’s great-great-great grandfather, the name also represents a hand carved Māori treasure which, when gifted bestows good fortune and love on others. We craft our wines with this same spirit in mind. Tiki started from very humble beginnings and we certainly have never forgotten how lucky we are to do what we do in such a beautiful place. That sense of adventure and feeling of freedom that we get from living in New Zealand has never left us and is at the very heart of Tiki and the bespoke wines that we produce.
