Excellent craft distillery. I have not tried the rum so I cannot speak to it, but I have sampled or bought all of the other products and they have all been excellent. I returned today after not having visited for ten months and the service and friendliness of the staff was still the same. They also had a new single malt whisky offering that was excellent. The staff member who served me told that it tastes like an Irish whiskey and he was correct. I was great and I bought one right away after sampling. If you live in Ottawa or the surrounding region or are visiting this place is worth a visit - especially if you are a whisky or gin drinker.

I had organized a group Feb 2016 using groupon to do a tour of the North of 7 distillery. Jody is one of the co-owners and he was refreshing about they did not know what they were getting into and it was a lot of trial and test and sample lol... Greg the other co-owner when queried mentioned some of the challenges running a craft distillery in Ontario. I had looked into a document on LCBO markup which is high even on federal excise tax so tax on tax with only a small portion going to the distillery. The then 22 month white dog aging into Canadian whiskey should a lot of promise. We organized a return trip for June 2017 and sampled some new products such as the Canadian whisky, 57% rum and spiced rum as well as the white dog, gin, vodka and regular run. My favourite surprisingly was the 57% rum which considering I am not a rum tippler as the norm except for the very occasional rum and coke or cocktails. The tour is a nice way to spend an hour, find out more about distilling and sample some very good craft products. I have bought the Gin and the 57% rum for myself and a bottle of Canadian whiskey from the 2nd barrel as a gift...

Great having a distillery in Ottawa! I'll be going back soon when the rum is available.

I can't speak to the quality or taste of their products as they are definitely not my area of expertise, but I do feel compelled to share that our tour guide, one of the co-owners, was very interesting to listen to, not to mention a whole lot of fun for us. I was there with a group of friends for a bachelor party and our very welcoming guide made sure we had an informative and lightheartedly entertaining time. His wit and character will not soon be forgotten. As a fan of localism and one who always roots for independent underdogs competing with privileged corporations, I may be a little biased here, but I strongly recommend these guys for your next group event. And while there, try their products - they might be good, too.

I don’t know ANYTHING about liquor, but the tour was great and very engaging. I’m pulled my for these guys. Buy local?
