About Us

Calgary was founded at a traditional meeting place, where the Bow and the Elbow rivers join. For millennia, native tribes used this spot as a place to gather. As the Victorian British Empire moved west looking to consolidate Canada and stop the Americans from moving north, they saw this spot for what it was; a staging point to the Rocky Mountains and a lynch pin to the region. Calgary was born here at the place where the two rivers meet and so has Two Rivers Distillery. In the essence of late 19th century Canada, the driving determination of the settlers and the men tasked with keeping the peace comes the forces that motivate us to make our spirits. Like our settler ancestors, we use only ingredients we source locally and mix these with the glacial fed waters of the Bow and Elbow. The result are spirits that are distinctly Albertan, and hopefully something the builders of this country would have been proud to call their own.
