2/1 has kindly allowed Grunts Grog to show the trailer.

2/1 RNZIR has kindly allowed us to make this one-off numbered limited edition historical bottle that is dedicated to the Presentation of new Battalion Kings and Regimental Colours to 2/1 RNZIR, adding to this special occasion is the adding of eight additional battle honours. 

Six of these battle honours have never been emblazoned onto any other NZ Army infantry Colour. They are HILL 60 (ANZAC) and DELVILLE WOOD, which are unique to Te Hokowhitu a Tū - the New Zealand Maori Contingent and the New Zealand Maori (Pioneer) Battalion respectively; OLYMPUS PASS and MONASTERY HILL, which are unique to or were uniquely chosen for emblazonment by 28 (Maori) Battalion; and VEVE and SILLARO CROSSING, which are unique to or uniquely chosen for emblazonment by 27 (Machine Gun) Battalion.

The two remaining battle honours, SARI BAIR and SOMME 1916, 18, are inherited from the New Zealand Maori Contingent and the New Zealand Rifle Brigade respectively.

The red lid represents the blood spilt earning these battle honours. The black and white on the label front and back represent the black and white patch which is worn by 2/1 RNZIR. Included into the label is the Infantry Corp belt.

$5 from every bottle sold from this bottle will go back to the 2/1 RNZIR Units Public Fund to support the soldiers and officers of the unit.

Grunts Grog's journey began there so it is fitting and rewarding that we can give back to the battalion as a thank you.
