Dubh Glas Distillery
Oliver, BC
Dubh Glas (dugh-luhs) in Gaelic means “from the dark water” and is reflective of the source water used in the making of our feature spirits. A well on the property is where we source our pure ‘dark’ water, which is fed by an underground aquifer. That source water from the ‘dark depths’ has been filtered through the Okanagan Valley, free of pollutants and surface contamination. It is also reflective of Grant Stevely, the artisan distiller, who has shared the name in his family for generations. -

Anohka Distillery
Edmonton, Alberta
Alberta’s newest farm to flask distillery, Anohka is here to redefine the Canadian spirits game. By marrying proven old-world distilling practices with cutting edge science and technology, our spirits aren’t simply an iteration of something you’ve tried before—they live up to the true meaning of the word Anohka. -

Bridgeland Distillery

Daniel and Jacques first met in 2016 at a distilling workshop in the Okanagan.

Founded by Hiram Walker in 1858 after moving from the U.S. due to its prohibition laws, it is known for producing Canadian whisky brands like Canadian Club and J.P. Wiser's.
