Scotland
Rich toffee sweetness on the nose, with creamy vanilla and top notes of green apples. The taste is bursting with honey and ground spices, notes of custard and dried tobacco leaf, with toasted oak on the finish.

Caribbean
This premium rum comes straight from the islands of Barbados, where abundant sunshine and high humidity makes sugar cane especially easy to grow. Made of pure sugar and molasses, this rum is infused with exotic spices to give a subtle taste of cinnamon and chocolate.

Caribbean
Also from Barbados, our white rum features all the same quality ingredients and craft of our spiced rum—without the spices. While our spiced rum is aged in oak, this is fermented in steel and filtered, making it ideal for mixing in cocktails.

Special blend
A rich whisky you’ll swear is a lot more expensive than it is. It pours golden straw and is perfectly balanced with oak, citrus, and ginger notes underscoring the rye grain. Its extra aging rounds the flavour into a clean, dry finish.

5X Distilled
You won’t be able to tell the difference from super expensive premium varieties. That’s because we start with two-row malt from Alberta and Saskatchewan, then add pure water from 1,200 feet below ground. It’s then distilled five times in a pot-still vessel like the kind they use for fancy scotch and cognac.

Irish-style cream liquor
Made with the finest Wisconsin dairy cream and Irish whisky blended with chocolate, caramel, and other natural flavours to create a creamy and scrumptious alternative. Enjoy it in coffee, on the rocks or in a dessert cocktail. Sláinte!
Put it in your cart
Get your tonic ready, because this new-age gin is distilled in small batches and slowly steeped with juniper, lemon peel, orange peel, coriander, licorice and a few secret ingredients in order of density. This lets the essential oils and flavours shine, giving it the kind of flavour people overpay at bars to experience—but at an excellent price. Think distinct citrus-forward notes with a floral aroma and a refreshing burst of pine and mild spice.

Ireland
This whiskey has unique smoothness and character. It’s gently matured in oak casks and skillfully blended right on the Emerald Isle, giving it a pear and creamy vanilla note off the top followed by a deep nutmeg and malty finish. Since you’ll save so much when you buy it, you may as well splurge on fancy ginger ale—it makes a great mix.

Kentucky
The proud traditions of America’s original spirit live on north of the border in every one of these bottles. Distilled in Kentucky, its corn mash bill delivers deep, rich flavour with spicy notes of honey, citrus peel, malt, butterscotch and vanilla with fruit and toasted oak on the back end.
