Absolutely a must book place if you need a break from wine, or have a non wine drinker. Everything we tasted was amazing and the staff are so friendly.

"text": "An amazing distillery. It may not be the largest around, but they make up for it with the history and quality of their spirits. They are accommodating and happy to share the knowledge they have. If you like the strong stuff or just the sweet, it’s a place everyone should try. Can’t say enough about how fantastic this place is.",

"text": "This was by far my best distillery experience! The owner and host, Annette, did a splendid job guiding us through the tasting. Every spirit we tried, from the gin to the brandy and liqueurs, was outstanding—by far the best I’ve ever had. I was so impressed that I ended up buying two bottles. Their GIN is absolutely top-notch! I definitely recommend making a stop here if you’re in Penticton. You won’t be disappointed!",

"text": "We arrived at Maple Leaf Spirits expecting to try whiskey, but learned that isn’t what they make. Rather the proprietor (who is an extremely friendly gentleman and is happy to spend time with customers sharing his knowledge by answering questions) is focused to making cognac (though he can’t call it that) and other European style liqueurs. They act as really good digestives and are quite nice as a nightcap. The cognac has won several awards in Canadian competitions as well. We tried a Maple Liqueur he made (because well he is in Canada) and it was really nice! I got myself a bottle will be using it to spice up my coffee or have it over ice cream.",

"text": "I've been to Naramata many times on day trips from Kelowna and I have to say this was my favourite Naramata tasting experience of all! One of the owners, Anette did our tasting and she was so personable and genuine. I appreciated that she seemed like she was in no rush and we felt no pressure to buy (but of course we did as it was all fantastic). The atmosphere and view were so lovely - we got to sit outside under a beautiful big tree at a patio table for our tasting and it was heavenly. All the fruit liqueurs were my favourite (I have a sweet tooth!). My top picks were the cherry and the pear but loved them all. They also had some less-sweet spirits for those in our little group that didn't have as much of a sweet tooth that they loved and bought bottles of. Highly recommend and will definitely return!",
