How can it be a small batch product if you sell several thousand bottles?
We only get about 1,200 bottles per batch, which is relatively small. We must make many batches to fulfill our seasonal orders.
Why do you call it “Chicken Bones Liqueur?
The product is a real chocolate and cinnamon flavoured liqueur. In Atlantic Canada we commonly refer to that flavour combination as chicken bone flavour. It is not because it has actual chicken or bones in the liqueur.
Why does the flavour and bottle change a bit every year?
As a small craft distillery with limited resources, we can only make our products in very limited quantities each year. We try our hardest to improve the recipes every time we make our products by taking consumer feedback into consideration.
