Six Cats Distillery
Sophie’s Apple Gin
40% ABV, $60 (750 ml)
Sophie’s Gin is made from B.C. apples that are fermented into cider at the distillery. That cider is distilled, lightly charcoal-filtered, then distilled a second time with selected botanicals placed in the vapour line. The result is a smooth gin that goes well with summer evenings.
Available at the distillery (101-39279 Queens Way, Squamish), online at SixCatsDistillery.ca, and coming soon to private liquor stores.
The Woods Spirit Co.
Arancello
22% ABV, $48.50 (750 ml)
A vibrant, West Coast take on the classic Italian aperitivo. Crafted from organic blood oranges, it opens with bright citrus aromatics layered with subtle raspberry notes and a soft, juicy sweetness. Think Aperol—but with fresh blood orange and a smoother, less bitter finish.
Perfect for spritzes, Arancello shines when paired with prosecco and a splash of soda, or enjoyed simply over ice. It also adds a lively citrus lift to cocktails.
Available at the distillery and at TheWoodsSpiritCo.com

World’s Best Grain Spirit (2024)
“Cleanly distilled with a fine grain character that is both complex and enticing. Berries with a touch of stone fruit join on the palate, along with a little amaretto nuttiness. A lovely, balanced digestif.”
Available at our distillery, select private liquor stores, and at CopperSpirit.ca
