Okanagan Spirits Craft Distillery

Distillery

About

Okanagan Spirits Craft Distillery is Western Canada’s original craft distillery, dating back to 2004. The distillery sprung from the idea of using 100% locally grown fruits and grains to make premium, world-class spirits just a tractor-ride away from the orchards and fields where the base ingredients were grown. BC’s original farm-to-flask distillery now offers a selection of more than 30 internationally awarded spirits ranging from Single Malt, BRBN Bourbon-Style, BC Hopped, and BC Rye Whiskies, to Gins, Vodkas, Fruit Liqueurs and Brandies, to Aquavit and even Taboo Genuine Absinthe. Okanagan Spirits is a family owned and operated Distillery offering tours and tastings, and a chance to witness first-hand the magic of craft distilling at its best. In early 2015, they relocated and redesigned their original flagship Vernon distillery, which is now home to North America’s tallest copper pot still, towering over a 1930’s style production facility that allows them to keep up with growing demand, and to vastly expand their Whisky production capabilities. Taste handcrafted cocktails made from the award-winning spirits and learn some new recipes from Canada’s craft distilling pioneer at the onsite Barrel Room distillery lounge and patio.
