Myriad View Distillery

Prince Edward Island


In homage to PEI's bootlegging past, this distillery produces Canada's only legal moonshine, which comes in two strengths: the original 50% proof Strait Shine, and a hard-core double-distilled Strait Lightning (a staggering 75% ABV). Myriad View also brews a brandy, pastis, gin, whisky, vodka, rum and even a unique dandelion 'shine. Tours are free.
