Wow! What a little gem this place is! We came by with some friends, grabbed a gin & tonic and took the factory tour. Our guides were knowledgeable and super friendly! I loved learning about the gin making process. The distillery section is amazing and absolutely spotless clean. These guys obviously take a lot of pride in what they do and it shows in their final products. The tour ended with a 5 gin tasting. All of them were great! We ended up buying a few bottles of the Empress gin which is both excellent in flavour and beautiful in colour! Be sure to drop by for a visit!

Went here on a Friday afternoon with a group of 4 and had a $7.00/person tour which takes place every hour. It was interesting, informative and fun. Lasted about 30 minutes. Dave and Jason were very friendly and engaging. The tour includes a tasting at the end of 5 items. The Empress gin is beautiful and delicious. We definitely took a bottle home. The chocolate liquer was amazing. We also enjoyed some gin and tonics. We got some great information on gin and had a great time.

Went on the tour of this place. It's a nice clean place and a new building built a few years ago right on the water front in downtown sidney. The tour took about a half hour and the tasting took about a half hour aswell. We all had a cocktail as we talked around on the tour. The guy doing the tour was very knowledgeable and spent the time to take question from anyone that had any question.

These guys are phenomenal. I was able to sample almost all of their wares, and wow, I walked out after purchasing twice as much as I intended to buy. Their Empress 1908 and their spiced rum are absolutely phenomenal. My wife is especially enamored with the fact that the gin changes from purple to pink when mixed with citrus.

Was out in Victoria on Thursday night and finally decided to try Empress gin. The only distillery in the world is located right here on Vancouver island in Sidney. The gin is a bit pricey but oh man is it smooooth. I was told it is now sold all over the world. And will be in Costco liquor stores soon.

With there signature Empress Gin, Victoria Distillers is with a stop. There are tours and sales available directly from the distillery. There is also a very nice lounge with signature cocktails. A very nice way to end a visit to the Sidney waterfront.
