Whelp, made a special trip from Abbotsford to visit Wayward and pick up a bottle of Krupnik (or four) and ended up leaving with bottles of the rum / raspberry gin and coffee vodka. Definitely will be harassing shops in my neighborhood to stock some of their Gin?
Great folks, were very pleasant and pleased to see us. I applaud their initiative to help the bees - we need more businesses to support such a vital commodity. I also geeked out and they showed me their different stills that they use.
On a separate note: they do have two lvl 2 chargers there for your EV (Tesla + J1772) so don’t be afraid to swing by.

Great products and good people who stand up for what's right!

As other reviews have said, awesome delivery service. But more importantly, is the quality of the product I purchased (Depth Charge). Finally, a coffee & chocolate flavoured vodka, without overpowering sweetness. Love it! I highly recommend. Can't wait to try the raspberry gin, but that is a gift I am giving to someone so I must be patient! I'm sure it will be just as delicious! Also, I have to mention their customer service is STELLAR. Thank you, Wayward Distillery, for caring enough to make quality spirits for us to enjoy. Your dedication is evident and so appreciated. Buzz on!

Came to see this place all the way from Toronto based on buying one of their bottles at a Christmas market last year. It did not disappoint! The samples and friendly service were greatly appreciated. The variety of flavours are great and I appreciate the love for bees. You guys rock!

Dropped in to Wayward on a visit to the area. Love the place, loved the product. Hats off to you for following your passion, people who work and own the place, thanks for making this world just a little bit more colourful. The rum had an excellent liqueur-ish taste (presumable form the honey, and what must be a slightly unconventional distilling process). Full marks for your vodka, it was most excellent, loved it, just a slight unusual twist of something (if you didn't know, you wouldn't guess it was honey-based), very drinkable next to a lake, slightly chilled (not too cold). Put down your Smirnoff, and try this one, but don't mix it with anything. Keep doing exactly what you are doing, Wayward!

Don’t hesitate for a second to stop by and pick up some excellent gin. I stop by every time I’m in town to restock. My latest purchase is the raspberry gin with new recipe for a gin mule. Excellent quality product.

If you plan to spend a few days in Comox or Courtenay, be sure to visit this wonderful distillery. We were there today and were very well served by Krista. she loves what she does. She did a great job, also presenting us with different types of drinks and explaining each one in detail. congratulations Krista, people like you make a difference in this world !!!!

We wanted to check this place out since we heard really good things and oh boy! It was even better than we expected. Super small outfit but so unique and so well thought out on every business aspect. Very casual small tasting and so much knowledge shared by the staff. It was a highlight on our roadtrip. All spirits are absolutely delicious and easily among our favorites ever for each category. And we don’t even drink vodka normally… this is a must go for any lover of spirits.

Got to try some free samples of some amazing gin and other liqueurs, so much so that I had to make some purchases. The staff were extremely friendly and we even got to see some honey bees up close. I came here just to charge my car for a bit but my experience with this place was above and beyond in every way.
A warm welcome and wonderful experience. I only wish I had more space in my luggage for one each of these most delicious drinks.

We always shop Wayward at the Vancouver Christmas Market, so when we realized they were in Courtenay we were so excited to visit them in their own home! The staff were very welcoming and we got to do a complementary tasting. Of course we couldn't leave empty handed, and their. Raspberry gin with fresh raspberries was too good to pass up!

The gentleman who was helping me was very friendly and their products are really good. Worth the visit!

Some of the finest-tasting cask strength apple brandy in the world is made right here. It was a rare treat to try!
