"Whisky from the Heart of Wine Country" The Dubh Glas Distillery will be an artisan distillery located in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia in the heart of the wine region near the town of Oliver. It will focus on producing uniquely Canadian single malt whisky using Canadian barley, a local cooperage to produce barrels, and finishing the spirit in Okanagan Valley wine casks. A distinct Canadian single malt whisky distillery rather than an attempt to replicate a Scottish style distillery, complete with an education/tasting room and retail sales area. What makes The Dubh Glas Distillery concept unique is the fact that whisky is to be made in small batches that are artisan distilled, allowing it to be made with unique craftsmanship. The romance and feel of a distillery that cares about the quality of the spirit produced will set it apart from other distillers.
