“We are overjoyed to be returning after two years off. The event will be a little smaller, a little quieter, with several new distilleries and lots of new spirits for people to try,” stated Alex Hamer
Each distillery is releasing between 50 and 100 bottles only. These bottles represent a rare opportunity for spirits enthusiasts and collectors to try something that isn’t otherwise available.
This year’s festival – the seventh annual edition – features appearances from 40 of our province’s favourite distilleries. All participating distilleries will be pouring samples of their product. Plus, attendees can check out the Legacy Liquor pop-up shop.
The festival raised $8,041 for the Pacific Assistance Dogs Society (PADS) through a silent auction, 50/50 draw, and a portion of ticket sales. “Two years ago we were lucky enough to name a dog as a gesture of thanks from PADS for the funds we had raised,” Hamer said. “Vesper is now in advanced training, and I’m happy we can continue to contribute to her training with the hope she’ll successfully complete the program and be placed with one of PADS’ clients.”
