DISTILLERY NOTES - Ampersand Gin

Ampersand Gin is our flagship product, an award winning instant classic, that brings together BC grown wheat with eight cultivated or wild harvested botanicals and our own spring water.

Ampersand Gin plays well with others in your favourite cocktails, but it's also brilliant on its own. And since it's made from scratch with high quality botanicals and BC grown wheat, we think it's a better gin. Period.

BC SPIRITS NOTES

I missed day #149 so I doubled down today, upstairs at Vista 18 which has an amazing selection of local spirits. Because I hosted Jess from Ampersand Distilling on the podcast yesterday, I want to do their gin and then something brand new for me, the Anderson Distilling Smoked Rosemary Gin. Both so different, the Ampersand is a classicist gin with a great citrusy profile while the Anderson Smoked Rosemary is complex and rosemary forward.

Join the #1 authority on British Columbia's distilling and spirit culture, we taste through some of BC’s burgeoning craft spirits, from the weird and wonderful to the eclectic. With in-depth tastings, to advice on how to mix craft spirits along with professional bartending tips and tricks; BC Spirits has you covered.
