We live in the area so stopped in. The owner helped us out. Great place. The canned gin drinks are amazing. The dark rum made with Crosby molasses is unbelievable. Highly recommend stopping by when in the Valley. Did I mention the rum ? Very unique 👌

"text": "Big fan of Tide Gin over the years. Always take a bottle from Liquid Assets airport store when visiting out of province, and it's a big hit.\nWanted to try, but had trouble finding, a bottle of the Windward Whiskey as it seemed to always be sold out. Finally found a bottle at the Garlic Festival in Windsor, NS, a couple of weeks ago.\nVery much enjoying this excellent sipping whiskey. Fares well versus the competition, which would be premium labels from the big boys, and other craft regional distilleries.\nOnly downsides are availability and the somewhat high price @ $67.00 for 700 ml bottle. Will savour this one.",

"text": "Was feeling in a \"support local\" mood at the liquor store and got the 5 fathom rum.\nNot only is it a good local choice, it's an amazing rum overall.\nBasically it's the best integration of a molasses flavor in any rum I have ever had.\nHad it on the rocks and let the ice melt slightly, no bite, all flavor.\nWhat a great find!\nThe bottle and cork is a unique touch too.",

Oh My God.. never in my life, have I tasted such a smooth rum. I will be ordering more .. Thank you ..",
