Gin lovers, get ready to raise your glasses—just in time for International Gin and Tonic Day! The Fairmont Waterfront in Vancouver has teamed up with Wayward Distillery to introduce a gin that’s as fresh as the West Coast breeze: Waterfront Gin. This signature spirit is all about local flavor, sustainability, and a little rooftop magic—literally! It’s crafted using honey from the hotel’s very own rooftop bees and blended with wild-foraged botanicals that showcase the best of the coastal wilderness.
What makes Waterfront Gin so special? It’s a taste of Vancouver in a bottle, with flavors like Nootka rosehips, spruce tips, cucumber, rosemary, and lavender, all mingled with clover and honey. The result is a gin that feels like a walk through the seaside forests and gardens of the Pacific Northwest.
Want to try it? Head to ARC Restaurant + Bar at Fairmont Waterfront and sip on cocktail creations like the Apiary—a dreamy mix of Waterfront Gin, chartreuse, honey syrup, and champagne acid. Or, keep it classic with their signature Waterfront Gin + Tonic, featuring Fever Tree tonic, a twist of orange, and juniper berries for a fresh, West Coast twist on a favorite.
This gin is more than a drink—it’s a celebration of community, local ingredients, and the natural beauty of the West Coast. So, mark your calendar for International Gin and Tonic Day on October 19 and toast to Vancouver’s newest must-try spirit! —Noa Nichol
