Distinctly Vancouver Island.
Uniquely Shelter Point.
Shelter Point Distillery
Pure water, Canadian grain and sea air.
ON CANADA’S WEST COAST
Welcome to Shelter Point Distillery. Located in Campbell River on Vancouver Island, we are proud to craft some of the highest-quality single malt and single grain whiskies in North America.
Situated along the oceanside and surrounded by 380 acres of farmland, our selection of uniquely Canadian premium whiskies are made with traditional methods that allow our Vancouver Island coastal terroir to shine – including 200 tonnes of estate grown barley, naturally glacier-fed filtered water from our large aquifer, and salty sea air imparted on our whisky as it ages. At Shelter Point, we only use a single grain: barley. We do no blending: all of our grain is grown right here on the farm or purchased from other BC farmers and malted within the province.
Join us for a tasting and take a seat on our outdoor patio in spring and summer, or relax in our tasting room and cozy up by the fireplace during cooler months.
We can’t wait to share our award-winning Vancouver Island Coastal Whiskies with you.

SHELTER POINT SINGLE MALT WHISKY
Vancouver Island | Coastal Influence
Shelter Point Single Malt Whisky is a classic expression made in small batches using traditional methods, pot distillation and glacier fed aquifer water. Sitting on the coast of Vancouver Island the spirit benefits from the unique influence of our geography, ocean and terroir as it ages in different select casks. The whisky shows a balanced marriage of fruits, caramel, barley, baking spices, honey, seaside whiff, hints of wine, smoke and the sweet leathery mouthfeel of a high-quality single malt.

Shelter Point Farm:
the lay of our land.
Established in 2011, Shelter Point Distillery is located on 380 acres in Oyster River, BC, about halfway up the eastern side of Vancouver Island on the west coast of Canada. The land encompasses 2,000 metres of spectacular oceanfront, a natural mosaic of streams, a salmon-bearing river, wetlands, forests and fields — all shared with native wildlife, from bald eagles and great blue herons to blacktail deer and black bears. Farmed for generations, Shelter Point remains one of the last seaside farms on the Island.
