Empress 1908 Gin delights the senses with its balanced citrus-and-spice palette, brilliant colour, light floral fragrance and soft texture. Handcrafted in small batch copper-pot stills, Empress 1908 is a collaboration between Victoria Distillers and the legendary Fairmont Empress Hotel in Victoria, British Columbia. It uses eight signature botanicals, including juniper, grapefruit peel, rose petal, coriander, ginger, cinnamon, and a bespoke blend of tea made especially for the Empress Hotel. The eighth botanical, exotic butterfly pea blossom, was discovered in another tea served at the Empress Hotel. These blossoms balance the traditional citrus notes of gin with a warm herbal earthiness, and create a deep, natural indigo that changes colour depending on the mixer. The combination of exquisite taste, delicate aroma, soft texture, and remarkable presentation provide the perfect base for a new aesthetic of cocktail creation and enjoyment.

Paradise isn't necessarily a geographical requirement for making great whisky, but we managed to find it at Shelter Point. It's here that we hand craft our 100% Single Malt Whisky, distilled batch-by-batch in traditional copper pot stills from two-row barley, and aged in white oak barrels in our oceanfront warehouse. When it comes to artisanal whisky, every element matters-and in our unique, temperate rainforest climate, even the sunsets and sea air become integral. Experts tell us that the inaugural batch of Shelter Point Single Malt Whisky has a very nice spice with good barrel sweetness, fruit and floral notes and some chocolate on the nose. It's nicely finessed with a good balance of complexity and delicateness. Translation? It goes down very, very smoothly.

This unique all natural Single Malt Whisky (BC's first whisky!) is bottled with part of a cask (French oak barrel) at the families Okanagan Valley distillery in Kelowna, British Columbia.

Once the aging process meets your required taste simply pour the whisky into a decanter and enjoy this Single Malt Whisky in the weeks and years ahead.
