Haskap Wins At World Spirits Awards

Several double golds have been won over the last year for haskap-based wines and liqueurs.

At the recent Wold Spirits Awards in Denmark a haskap liqueur won yet another award again...the producer a B.C. distillery.  The judges' description of this most recent win of Haskap Liqueur read:   Fragrance: complex, very aromatic, currant/raspberry/citrus mixture.  Taste: Vivid, Wild Berry bouquet, very good balance of acid and fruit, full-bodied and long.  YUM!

Here's the links from the most recent awards, which were given to Okanagan Spirits:

The berries come from the [nearby] berry patches of Elaine and Randy Rodgers' Northern Jewel Farm, located in Smithers B.C.,  and High Mountain Farm, owned by Axel Hvidberg and Doris Buckler located in Salmon Arm, B.C..!

Nice...
