I regularly buy their Elderflower liquor from Everything Wine to make cocktails, now that I get to visit their distillery itself and discovered more goodies. The staff there is really knowledgeable and passionate about liquor. The cocktails are really good too, highly recommend checking them out or try their specialty liquors.

High quality artisan spirits distilled from 100% BC grown fermentables. Locally owned and operated by great folks who are focused on their craft.

Very chill space. I bet in the summer it’s fantastic with more light and a small outdoor patio. We tried a small flight of their liqueurs. Nice staff. A wonderful addition in Nanaimo. Excited someone is making limoncello.

Amazing selection of hand made artisan spirits in the heart of Nanimo, a great place to stop for a cocktail or a tasting flight! Their award winning Absinth and Rye are outstanding.

Local Distillery producing Gin, Vodka, absinthe, rye and single malt. Flavored expressions of the Vodka and Gin, include espresso Vodka (a family favorite and often requested) Citrus Gin hibiscus Vodka and honeyed rhum.
