Established in 2008 in Sidney, British Columbia, Victoria Distillers collaborated with the iconic Fairmont Empress Hotel to create this unique gin. Inspired by the hotel's legendary afternoon tea service, the team sought to blend classic gin elements with signature estate tea blends.
This micro-distilled spirit is handcrafted in copper pot stills by Victoria Distillers on Vancouver Island. It features a unique blend of botanicals including black tea and butterfly pea blossom, which imparts the signature natural color change.
