Bottling your wine at gilander's is an experience in itself, especially when you are a wine lover…read more The staff is very helpful and sweet. Welcome you with a smile and inviting attention. There is alot to know for a first timer like me so be patient with them and let them explain you the whole process of how to get the wine prepared. Basically , they would do everything for you but you got to select the end product and quantity you want. For me the guy went extra mile as i requested the facility tour and learnt about Wine making process from him. As you visit first time , you purchase the juice as per different price range and the quantity. Pay for it and you are off the hook for some weeks. I mean they will do the fermentation,degassed,filteration process for you. And when the finished product is ready , they would call you to come bottle your wine. Now its upto you to get your own bottles or they would provide you with them. Stickers and caps on your wine bottle could also be customized at this very facility. Imagine gifting your friends a bottle of wine with your company logo or just a cute thank you message. I would say it was cost effective too as i got 30 bottles in $253.00 after taxes which makes each bottle worth $8 with taxes. It took almost 2 months for my wine to be prepared so i was called during quarantine time to fill the bottles n i must say the sanitation measures were highly followed. In fact only two people were allowed in the facility at a time. They made sure that everything was sanitized. Infact the bottles are anyways washed and sanitized before being filled with wine. An experience to enjoy at any time of the year. Steps of wine making here as follows: 1. Purchase juice 2. Primary fermentation 3. Degassed 4. Secondary fermentation ( on shelfs) 5. Filteratuin n polished 6. Finished

Fabulous business in Vancouver! I signed up for a cocktail making class and our instructor Aaron…read morewas amazing! I've always wanted to do something like this but have been a bit nervous to do so but he made the class fun, funny, and so easy! You have the chance to make 3 bespoke artisan cocktails during this 3 hour class, 2 of their signatures and then the 3rd Aaron let us pick! He made it so easy and explained each step well, also how to use the tools properly along with sharing some great tips on shaking, measuring and also the importance of balance in your cocktail. I enjoyed every minute as well as consuming the cocktails after... each so delicious made with their in house liquors. If I had room I would have bought several bottles with me to take home!

Aaron came out as we were looking for Plan B and let us know the event had just ended and they were open again. (5 loud cheers on the street for sure!) I tried both the Kyoto and Wet Work, enjoying them both. They would even work as a blend of one another. My dad accidentally ordered a chocolate martini instead of an espresso martini, and Aaron made it happen. (The entire table loved it! Take that poured over some ice cream and I'd be far too content!) My brother had the gin martini, and while not a fan of gin straight up, it had a nice smooth finish that I could appreciate.

Open EVERY day 9am-11pm, here you'll find almost anything that strikes your fancy. Tonight I wandered into the wine selection (OMG how to choose just one?) and settled after some time, on a Jackson Triggs Shiraz which is currently on sale at $8.99 (until July 3/10 apparently). Yeah I got two. The male cashier was super friendly, being both polite and prompt. (They even had my 37 year old self show my ID - which can only be a compliment) ;) For clarity, they seem to have two names (written all over their uniform aprons and bags): Liquor Barn and Liquor depot and two separate website addresses to match: http://www.liquordepot.ca and http://www.liquorbarn.ca

I walk in looking for a specific Cigar. The store clerk helping one male customer. So really it's just the three of us now in this tiny store. The clerk sees me and shoots me a dirty look. No problem. Maybe his dog is sick or something.... I don't know. I wait 5 min, 10 min, 15 min. No Hello. No I'll be right with you. Nothing. Not a single gesture of acknowledgement....of not only a customer but another human being that just happens to walk into your establishment. Bizarre. Going on 20 min now. I started to feel very uneasy and uncomfortable, as I was now being overtly ignored, and me being the Alpha-A type personality that I am....I wasn't just going leave and have someone ignore me like that. So.....I turned to the clerk who literally pretended I was a fly on the wall, and said...."If I could please get some service, I'm in a bit of a rush." He then with a pissed off reluctant look came my way. Even when he attended to me I felt this hostile energy from him I could not understand, and certainly was unfamiliar with, as I had never experienced anything like that. Ever. What was interesting was that the other customer felt bad for me, and apologized to me. It turned out I just had a question about a product and had to wait 20 min to ask it from a store clerk who pretended I was not there. Upon leaving the store there was only one thing that I was unsure of. Was it the fact that I was a Female or a person of colour that my business was not welcome?

Kinda pricey but what do you expect of Cubans and great service. Would visit again them againread more
