According to a Diet Mountain Dew ad, Taumata whakatangi hangakoauau o tamatea turi pukakapiki maunga horo nuku pokai whenua kitanatahu is a place in New Zealand.
The Maori name translates into English as "The hilltop where Tamatea with big knees, conqueror of mountains, eater of land, traveller over land and sea, played his flute to his beloved."
Wikipedia claims that the mount is "the longest officially recognized place name in an English-speaking country."
