We took friends

We took friends from Kelowna on our last visit - they were unaware of your distillery and all of us were more than impressed with the tour and tasting. The Taboo absinthe is excellent, and more than compares with the product we drank daily in France. Our friends will now take all out of province company to see you - and I will be ordering from Saskatchewan.

Wine-touring visitors must stop off at Okanagan Spirits

We've been buying and serving Okanagan Spirits' fruit liquors to our houseguests for a few years now: everyone expects to drink good Okanagan wine when they come to visit, but not many expect to get a fancy (and delicious) cocktail made with an Okanagan product. We certainly recommend that all of our wine-touring visitors stop off at Okanagan Spirits, for something a little more special than yet another winery.

S.Wood - Kelowna

 
 
 

Quality Liqueur from Canada

Received a few bottles of Okanagan Raspberry Liqueur as a gift from a visiting Canadian friend and we love it! Quality liqueur from Canada - my friend is welcome any time... we were so impressed we are planning a take the tour when we visit Vernon this summer.

Tasted Everything I Could

Tasted everything I could and loved it all. Fortunately, I brought along a designated driver. I'll make a return trip to Vernon soon to test the new Huckleberry and bring my own olives for the vodka.

Paul Bickert - Kelowna

 
 
 

Had an Awesome Time!

Had an awesome visit to Okanagan Spirits. The tour was so much fun and the tasting was fantastic. Well worth a visit while in Vernon.

STOP IN! You won't regret it

We got to visit these guys last year, just by a fluke. We were driving with the kids to the water park and seen the sign on the road, made a quick turn and woala: The best detour we've made on our vacation.

Frank was awesome to talk to and learn from. He gave the best tour of the distillery. We got to see the whole proses from ground up...the only thing we missed seeing first hand was the boiler being fired up. Maybe this year! The creations these men made were absolutely mind blowing!

We tasted just about everything..and took few home :) This year we can\'t wait to try the Whisky. That is going to be the deal breaker for us,,,,since we only drink Gibson\'s 18 year old. If you are in Vernon - STOP IN! You won\'t regret it. Trust me we enjoyed it with two little girls running around us. And if you need a good advice on wineries around the region, well Frank is your man for that too! KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB GUYS!

Lochart Family - Fort McMurray. Summer 2009
