THAT’S THE SPIRIT!

A collaboration between Victoria Distillers and the

Fairmont Empress hotel, Empress 1908 gin is a luxe take on the classic spirit. This deliciously smooth gin is handcrafted in small-batch copper-pot stills, then blended with black tea that’s served at the Empress and butterfly pea blossom, giving it its signature indigo hue. $50/750 mL. LCBO.
