Raincity is a small distillery located in scenic Squamish, British Columbia. Last Garden Gin is a floral fusion of Elderflower and Osmanthus with the signature spicy flavor of Juniper. With over a dozen botanicals lending their spicy, citrusy, and floral flavors and aromas to this spirit, Last Garden Gin will transport you to a summer garden in full bloom.

Snow Capped Cider family’s orchard legacy spans over a century, with five generations cultivating a tradition of excellence that has grown into businesses like Snow Capped Cider. The cider is crafted at an impressive elevation of 6,130 feet, making it one of the highest-elevation orchards and cideries in the world. The Sparkling Rosé is made from single varietal Pinova apples aged on Malbac wine lees with dried elderberries for 9 months in oak.
