Esquimalt Rosso Vermouth
$28.79
From the producer;
"This BC Vermouth is made in the style of a traditional Italian Rosso Vermouth, but with enough Vancouver Island character to stand on its own. Over twenty different botanicals are precisely extracted into a continuously aged Solera and then added to our fortified mead to create a sweet vermouth tailor made for classic cocktails like a Negroni, Martinez or Manhattan. Frequently enjoyed over ice, perhaps topped with sparkling water.
As always, all of our products are made from mead on Vancouver Island, using 100% British Columbian honey from our own apiary in Fort St. John managed by Paradis Apiaries FSJ."

The quiet rebels are the hardworking folk who make Nc'nean, and Amy is the distillery's Head of Sustainability. The whisky has been bottled at 48.5% after maturing in STR (63%), ex-Bourbon (18%), and ex-Maury (19%) casks.
Producer Description
"This year’s Quiet Rebels release has Head of Sustainability, Amy, at the helm. It’s moreish, creamy, jammy and absolutely delicious. Quiet Rebels Amy includes whisky finished in ex-Maury casks from a small organic vineyard in France who produce a fortified wine that is made in a similar way to port. The 60 year old vines are maintained with a variety of sustainable farming methods including agroforestry which involves integrating frees amongst the vines to improve soil richness. The farm also follows the biodynamic principles such as following the lunar calendar which several studies show is an effective way to determine the best time to plant and harvest crops. These ex-Maury casks have been blended with Nc’nean’s house style STR red wine and ex-Bourbon casks to create Amy’s dream bottling.
