Windsor-Essex Distilled – Raise a Glass to Local History

Posted May 30, 2023



When people think of Essex County, they often think of wineries. For good reason – we have world-class wineries just around the corner. Essex County doesn’t just grapple with grapes but grain too! Distilleries have been part of Windsor Essex’s history for decades – soak in our history and stop by one of our amazing distilleries this summer.  

  1. Wolfhead Distillery 

This Amherstburg craft distillery offers tastings and tours and has a restaurant on site. They make 8 spirits, including flavoured vodka, whiskey, and gin. Wolfhead Distillery celebrates local ingredients and has won several international awards for its spirits. Their menu is great for any occasion – it has casual eats but also upscale options like surf and turf. Stop by this Amherstburg institution next time you’re in town!

  1. J.P Wiser’s

Located right on Riverside Drive, J.P. Wiser’s offers tours of the historic Hiram Walker facilities. Learn about one of the industries that built Windsor and drink delicious Canadian whisky – what’s not to love? They also offer a whiskey blending class – the perfect gift for the whiskey connoisseur in your life.

Tourism Windsor Essex offers The Flight Log – a self-guided tour that includes a “passport” that can be redeemed for tastings at breweries and distilleries across the county. They have options for a 24-hour pass, a 7-day pass, and a year-long pass that includes a tasting at all 13 locations and a bonus birthday tasting. Explore Windsor Essex and support our incredible local businesses – you won’t regret it.
