I gave them 5 stars. I don't know how anyone would have given them less. They were open on labour day, normal hours. The lady behind the counter was pleasant and extremely helpful and she knew her alcohol 🍸 with samples. Which may be why I don't remember her name 🤔😆 As you'll see with the following pics there's more than enough to sample and choose from. One sample I suggest is the dill pickle moonshine. Don't underestimate the deeliciousness factor. I'm gonna visit them again tday September 2 2025 🍸🤙🏼 I hope to see y'all there

"text": "What a gem! We visited by motorhome and there is plenty of parking for a big rig. Inside the unassuming building we were greeted by friendly and helpful staff (owners?) who walked us through tasting their many offerings. The store is rich with jams, sauces, preserves, clothing and much more. Their Rideau Whiskey (bourbon style) won second place in Kentucky last year, so needless to say we bought a bottle of that, among other things. They even offered us a tour of the distillery, which was quite interesting. We'll be back!!",

"text": "My family and I had the most amazing experience at Top Shelf . We love finding distilleries / breweries in towns across Canada.\n\nBut did you know they also have BBQ sauces and Pepper jellies+?!\n\nThe staff was super helpful. Though some in little pack had various taste. So knowledgeable and friendly.\n\nI've never met a place where they allowed you to sample so many things , and at no cost.\n\nWe even tasted their newly rolled out products!\n\n!!!Listen their *Maple Whiskey Cream* was NOTHING like we Expected!\n\nThis was so smooth - even the \"aftertaste\"...has us buying a bottle 😅.\n\nEven though I haven't touched a creamy liqueur in ages ....I wanted that one!\n\nAlso- moonshine - who knew those flavours would have had me hooked!\n\nP.s I had to take one product ( okay several) home.\n\nStaff shout out again. Thank you for taking the time to even discuss the jelly and sauces ; along with the compliment recipes.\n\nEven exchanging already done drink recipes to let's think of one for your pallet. **Shh 🤫 may have already created once we got home.\n\nThe upcoming festival is going to be fun!\n\nCan't recommend this place enough.",

I cannot impress upon you how impressed I was with, not only your facility...but your knowledge and outgoing staff!\n\nZack is an Artist when it comes to distilling, Emma exceeds expectations with the atmosphere for the tasting experience, and your front staff elevates the shop experience to an upper tier.\nYour team works cohesively well!\nI had a great time, learned lots, and walked away wanting to return.\n★And, of course credit to Shannon for opening the door and instilling interest in Top Shelf!\"",

"text": "Let's start with this, I do NOT drink alcohol. Zero.\n\nI ordered 6 bottles of liquor from Top Shelf for a party in Winnipeg. August 23rd 2025.\n\nDespite the fact I literally don't drink at ALL, how could you not try all 6? Even me, a complete non drinker tried all 6.\n\nI bought Buttertart liquor because OMG how is that not gonna be fabulous right? Its the one I really wanted to try!\n\nAs a non drinker let me say this about that. OMG people, Buttertart liquor is AMAZING! Incredibly smooth, has a definite kick but the aftertaste left in your mouth, pure heaven!\n\nMy guests loved all 6 bottles but the two major hits were the Buttertart Liquor and the Buttertart Moonshine.\n\nI will not become a drinker because of this party but believe me I definitely COULD, it was that fabulous!\n\nDon't hesitate to have an order shipped. Bottles arrived safe and very well packaged.\n\nHighly recommend this company unless you fear becoming addicted to Buttertart liquor! It may just happen!\n\nModeration people but enjoy every sip! This stuff will have you smiling!",
