Home Grown Heritage
Welcome to our six sweet little acres, nestled in the woods of southeast Kelowna. Cautionary note: Time stops here.
The Tasting Room
After you explore the vintage farm equipment – and perhaps get lost in the forest – find yourself in the tasting room for a freshly-crafted cocktail.
R&D Gin
Years from now, when we all look back in history at 2020, it will be remembered for some rather extraordinary challenges. We feel like it should also be remembered for the introduction of a damn delicious Gin – which carried us through some pretty crazy times.
With each small batch distilled, bottled and labeled by hand, this R&D Gin Series is craft spirit production at its best. Each blend has been meticulously crafted, balancing traditional juniper top notes with the complex addition of citrus and spice for character and depth. Enjoy this collection of micro-batch Gins, each one a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes, alchemistic magic of the Wiseacre lab.
Please note: These hand-crafted Gins are produced in itty bitty batches – each one with its own unique flavour profile. Batch numbers may vary.
Lazy Ass Vodka
They say it’s “the little things” that matter most. We’re aiming to prove that saying to be true – by producing small-batch, quality spirits in our tiny distillery in the woods. Each step in the production process is carried out by hand, by our passionate and nimble team of wiseacres.
Lazy Ass Vodka, like the farm itself, is beautifully uncomplicated. Crafted from a blend of BC malted barley and BC winter wheat, this smooth and simple spirit is ready to settle into your favourite vodka cocktail. Peppa the donkey, in her usual cheeky fashion, approves.
THE JOURNEY SO FAR
Stocking the shelves with bottles of our very first batch was a serious milestone, and production hasn’t slowed down since – as we work hard to bring you one new release after another. No rest in the still house!
The People
They say it takes a village… Ours may be small, but it’s made up of some seriously hard-working wiseacres who are passionate about producing farm-crafted spirits. Come up and see us! And if we’re busy out in the back nine when you arrive, either of the donkeys are pretty solid tour guides.
