Caldera
Premium Whisky
Our premium whisky is the result of the grains we grow on our distillery property in River John. Year over year variations lead to subtle differences in flavor, distilled for a lingering taste and a smooth finish. Caldera is the essence of patience, hard work and exploration. We are driven by the desire to produce a spirit that is as unrivaled at its completion as the ship we named it after.
Story Behind the Name
One of the largest ships ever built in River John, the beautiful Caldera represented the pinnacle of what was possible in this tiny town of skilled shipbuilders. The Caldera represents the best in craftsmanship — designed to trade with the entire world.
Cambrai
Darker-Style Rum
Handcrafted and made from freshly squeezed sugar cane, rather than molasses, our rum style is full of flavour. In it, you can pick up hints of minerals and the impact of each growing season.
Story Behind the Name
One of the last vessels built in River John, the Cambrai shuttled men and goods across the ocean during the First World War. After the war, the Cambrai went into merchant service often trading Nova Scotia cod for the rum and sugar cane of the West Indies.
Hurricane 5
Blended Whisky
Our handcrafted blended whisky is a traditional drink made from our season’s homegrown and regional grains. The spiciness of the rye is balanced out on the finish to produce a nice sharp start and a mellow end. Just as we never know what’s going to blow ashore during a hurricane, you get to enjoy the surprise of subtle differences in flavour with each new release
Story Behind the Name
Inside a barn on the distillery property, we found the words “October 18 1939 Storm” handwritten in pencil on one of the old beams. Officially recorded in the history books as Hurricane #5, the storm was so fierce that the townsfolk had to make record of it in this barn—a barn so well built, it still stands today.
