A Wellington outfit founded in 2021 by Cosmo Hawke and Jesse Phillips, working with organic growers across Te Horo, Kāpiti and the wider region. Their ethos is simple: organic or foraged fruit, wild ferments, no additives, bottled alive. They treat cider like natural wine; co‑fermenting heritage apples, quinces, feijoas, ume and other “ugly fruit” seconds into vibrant, unfiltered pét‑nats that express place, season and sheer creative energy. Their workshop in Te Aro hums with bubbling vats, stacked crates and a hands‑on, garage‑winery spirit that has quickly earned them a cult following in Wellington hospitality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fruit Cru","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54463124308181,"sku":"12248","price":25.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/3447\/6757\/files\/Fruit-Cru-Speciale.png?v=1786241291","url":"https:\/\/neatdrinks.co.nz\/products\/fruit-cru-speciale-2024","provider":"Neat","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
