Had a very terrible experience here. As there is a fine line between minors being accompanied by a…read moreLEGAL GUARDIAN (AKA THE MOM) and the fact that I am triple liquor licensed certified in three provinces including NS, I am very well aware of legal laws. I walked into the store with my mother and my 14 year old brother, my mother and me are both clearly legally adults with VALID gov issued ID's, and we looked around for about 15 minutes. My brother was informed not to touch anything, which he didn't and I'd like you to view security footage, all he did was tell me the prices of something because the screens turn fast and I don't have my glasses. So, he looked at the TV in the top right corner (not illegal, anyways). He told me the price of something, that is it, yet the ladies at the front waited until we went to pay to deny us purchase. It wouldn't have bothered me had the ladies told us when we entered the store that we were going to be denied for no reason because they expected my 14 year old brother to have legal government ID with him, they let us waste our time and we're almost snickering and a little too happy to deny us after so. Also, it looks like my brothers school bus pass would've been enough legally, but not for the ladies at the front I guess! Laws don't apply to Miss Sara and her buddy at the front, I suppose. Just made me upset that instead of telling us at the beginning that we were not allowed to purchase anything, they let us waste our time for 15 minutes and then acted almost as if they were more than happy to deny us, playing 'little woman syndrome' or something I am not sure but either way the ladies working should've known that a school bus pass was enough to get him through since his mother was there, but I guess in their eyes only a legal government ID is required. It would be nice if you were allowed to make up your own laws, but you're not. :) Teach your employees the laws better because a 14 year old shouldn't be able to out knowledge actual distillery workers.

The wine itself was fabulous but what made it even more enjoyable was our guide, Colleen.

I would highly recommend this tour and would do it again if ever returning to the area.

The Javalley was pretty cool which would be great in your coffee. We personally really liked their vodka. The best part of this place was the super friendly staff.

You can also order a flight of cocktails which the staff makes right there in front of you. The day we visited the staff member was amazing and was very kind and helpful. With your cocktail flight in hand, you can head out outside to enjoy drinking them. The drinks were all very tasty. We tried the Blueberry Mojito the Creamsicle, Espresso Martini and the Paradise. Our two favorites were the Espresso Martini and Paradise.

Ryan even helped our daughter find cool rocks at one of the beaches we explored. My husband is an adventurous guy who is from Halifax and has toured around the province a lot and I have lived here for 10 years and have done some touring myself and they took us to places neither of us had been to before. I never knew Nova Scotia had such diverse and gorgeous spots! While we were driving around, Ryan told us so much about the history of the area and it was absolutely fascinating. He is a deep well of knowledge which definitely enriched our experience. Both Dean and Ryan are kind and funny. We clicked immediately. I loved the adventure we went on today and our kids keep saying they want to do it again. Thanks for such a great day!
