Spirit of wine country
The South Okanagan is a fruitful playground for distillers to innovate and collaborate
“Smile, there’s gin,” says the chalked sign. Perched on the Naramata Bench, with a sleek tasting room and sunny patio overlooking Okanagan Lake, Legend Distilling could be mistaken for a hip winery.

Locals Only Negroni
Created by Wolf in the Fog bar manager Hailey Pasemko, this variation on the classic uses all B.C. products.
