Top Shelf at BC Distilled
The Results are in for the 2015 BC Distilled Best of Show
On Saturday, April 18, over 600 local spirits enthusiasts sampled their way through the province’s finest offerings at BC Distilled, British Columbia’s premier micro-distillery festival. With two sold out public events, fourteen unique vendors to the previous year and a pop-up Legacy Liquor Store added, BC Distilled 2015 proved that the micro-distillery industry in British Columbia is here to stay.
Attendees of BC Distilled were invited to choose their favourite vodka, gin and other spirit from twenty-two small-batch distilleries who showcased over seventy different locally made products at the event. There were eleven winners in the three categories with Sons of Vancouver’s Amaretto receiving the most votes of any spirit at the show. The results for Best of Show are:
Favourite Vodka:
1st Place: Unruly Vodka by Wayward Distillation House
2nd Place: Sons of Vancouver Vodka
3rd Place: Sons of Vancouver Chili Vodka
