Who We Are

YOUR VALLEY. OUR CRAFT. ONE LEGENDARY POUR.

The Ottawa Valley has its own pace — and its own standards. Whether you're in Arnprior, Renfrew, Almonte, or Carleton Place, you know the difference between something mass-produced and something made with genuine care. SFR Distillery falls firmly in the latter.

We're a small-batch craft distillery located at 23-767 Silver Seven Road in Kanata — just a straightforward drive from the heart of the Ottawa Valley. Every spirit we produce is distilled, aged, and bottled entirely on-site. No shortcuts. No outside production. No filler. Just clean, intentional craft from people who genuinely love what they make.

Our lineup spans the full range of premium Canadian craft spirits: a smooth corn-forward whisky aged in new oak and ex-bourbon barrels with notes of caramel, toasted spice, and a velvety finish; a botanical dry gin built for cocktails and quiet evenings; a charcoal-filtered wheat vodka that's silky, clean, and built to perform; and three bold handcrafted liqueurs packed with character.

Order online for delivery across Ontario — or make a day of it and visit us in Kanata. Either way, the Valley deserves a better pour. This is it.

"My Go-To Canadian Whisky"

“I was first introduced to SFR Whisky during the LCBO strike and was genuinely impressed. Smooth, flavourful, and easy to enjoy. It’s become my go-to Canadian whisky.”

— Jeff Q., Legendary Club Member

"Worth Joining for This Alone"

“I joined the Legendary Club hoping for something unique, and the first limited release delivered. From the moment I opened the bottle, you could tell this was something different. I’m proud to have one of the original 80.”

— Garett M., Legendary Club Member

“One of the Original 80.”

“Being part of the Legendary Club paid off immediately. Getting access to one of only 80 bottles from the first limited release felt pretty special. The whisky itself was incredible, but knowing it was reserved just for members made it even better.”

— Martin Z., Legendary Club Member

“More Than a Membership.”

“The online Legendary Club makes it easy to stay connected with SFR. Early access, exclusive releases, and member-only perks all in one place. It actually feels like being part of something, not just another mailing list.”

— Rebecca T., Legendary Club Member

“Crafted with Purpose.”

“You can tell SFR isn’t chasing trends. Every bottle feels intentional. From the story behind it to the whisky in the glass, it’s the kind of brand you’re happy to support and proud to share.”

— Travis H., SFR Distillery Customer

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The Ottawa Valley has always had a nose for the real thing and when a craft distillery starts showing up in conversations from Arnprior to Renfrew, people want answers before they commit. Is SFR actually available out here, or do you have to make the full drive into the city? What's in the bottle, and how is it made? Is the Kanata distillery worth a day trip from the Valley? These are fair questions, and they deserve straight answers. Whether you're ordering from your kitchen in Almonte or planning a road trip to Carleton Place and beyond, here's everything you need to know about SFR before your first pour.

Can I get SFR delivered to the Ottawa Valley?

Yes SFR delivers across Ontario, which means Arnprior, Renfrew, Almonte, Carleton Place, and everywhere in between. Order online and have whisky, gin, vodka, or any of our handcrafted liqueurs at your door without leaving the Valley. No city trip required.

How far is SFR Distillery from the Ottawa Valley?

A straightforward drive to 23-767 Silver Seven Road in Kanata just east of the Valley along the 417. Close enough to make a proper day of it, and worth every kilometre. Come for the tour, stay for the tasting flight, and head home with a bottle worth talking about.

What makes SFR spirits worth seeking out?

Every bottle is distilled, aged, and finished entirely on-site in Kanata no outside production, no shortcuts, no compromise. Small-batch Canadian craft spirits made with genuine intention. Corn-forward oak-aged whisky, botanical dry gin, charcoal-filtered vodka, and three bold handcrafted liqueurs that don't taste like anything else on the shelf. The Valley deserves a better pour this is it.

What's the distillery experience like in Kanata?

SFR is a working distillery and lounge not just a tasting counter. Walk in, browse the full spirit lineup, and pull up a seat for craft cocktails or a tasting flight. Book a guided tour and go grain to glass with tastings built into every stop along the way. Private events available for groups too. If you're making the drive from the Valley, make it count.
