The Newfoundland Distillery Company

Newfoundland & Labrador


It feels like there's a craft brewery around every random cove in Newfoundland, but spirits distilleries are thin on the ground. This one produces vodka and gin, which you can sample (along with local cheeses – yum) in the on-site tasting room. Live music kicks off on summer weekends.
