AboutOdd Society Spirits
In 2013, distiller Gordon Glanz and Miriam Karp opened Odd Society Spirits on Powell Street in East Vancouver. Glanz earned an MSc in brewing and distilling at Heriot-Watt University and later studied at Springbank in Campbeltown.
The small-batch distillery makes whisky, vodka, gin and liqueurs, with British Columbia grain, fruit and botanicals used across the range. Karp leads the business, events and tasting-room operations, while the production team handles mashing, fermentation and distillation.
Odd Society Salal Gin 375 mL
Canadian Liqueur
$39.99
British Columbia-grown salal berries are steeped in Wallflower Gin, creating a West Coast answer to classic sloe gin. The fruit brings an earthy, tart, tannic and herbaceous character, deeper and more savoury than its blueberry-and-blackcurrant appearance suggests. Deep crimson in colour, the liqueur combines coastal berry intensity with the character of its gin base, giving the palate complexity and a distinctly local profile.
Odd Society East Van Vodka 750 mL
Canadian Vodka
$49.99
Light fragrance and a gentle sweet aroma distinguish this vodka from a completely neutral style. Made from British Columbia grain in European copper pot stills, it is lightly filtered and blended with purified Vancouver water. The palate is smooth and softly expressive, retaining subtle grain character while remaining clean and composed through the finish, with fragrance and sweetness held in careful balance.
Odd Society Mia Amata Amaro
Canadian Liqueur
$31.99
Dark chocolate and bitter orange open into plum, toasted nut and a cool trace of mint. Layered botanicals bring resinous, floral and gently spiced depth, while the palate moves deliberately from firm bitterness toward a measured, lightly sweet finish. Complex without becoming medicinal, it is satisfying after dinner over ice or served well chilled. It also adds dark-fruit richness and an elegant bitter edge to a stirred cocktail or a more expressive spritz.
Odd Society Elderflower Liqueur
Canadian Liqueur
$31.99
Fresh elderflower gives an immediately fragrant, floral character, supported by tropical fruit, citrus and a clear note of lychee. The palate is rich and sweet but lifted by lemon, keeping the texture bright enough for mixed drinks rather than heavy. A lingering floral finish carries a gentle citrus freshness. Serve over ice with a squeeze of lemon, top with soda or sparkling wine, or use in a light spritz and other patio-style cocktails.
Odd Society London Dry Wallflower Gin
Canadian Gin
$37.99
Bold juniper forms the centre of the aroma, with grapefruit tracing a bright citrus line around it. The palate is crisp and dry, yet soft and rounded in texture, giving the traditional botanical profile a polished West Coast expression. Grain spirit made from British Columbia-grown grain keeps the structure clean, while the citrus lifts the finish. Serve in a dry Martini to emphasize its clarity, or pair with a restrained tonic and a grapefruit twist.
Odd Society Prospector Rye Whisky 375 mL
Canadian Whisky
$44.99
Brown sugar and dried prune give the nose a rich opening, followed by vanilla and charred oak. Full-bodied on the palate, the whisky softens into light rye spice and ripe stone fruit without losing its grain-led character. Northern British Columbia rye and new, heavily charred American white oak create a generous middle, while a crisp, dry finish recalls autumn leaves and gentle wood spice. Serve neat or with a few drops of water to open the fruit and oak.
Odd Society Powell Brewery Bourbon-Style Corn Whisky Collaboration 375 mL
Canadian Whisky
$42.99
A corn-led mash gives a rich, rounded sweetness, with rye adding gentle spice and malted barley lending depth. Overnight souring at the brewery brings definition to the grain, while three years in new American white oak build vanilla, caramel and firm oak structure. The palate is smooth and generous, retaining clear corn character beneath the wood. A warm, bourbon-inspired finish carries sweet grain and spice. Serve neat or with a few drops of water.
Odd Society Scottish Peat & Smoke Canadian Whisky 375 mL
Canadian Whisky
$61.99
Earthy hay and dried grass introduce a savoury, gently phenolic style, with briny salinity giving the nose a distinctly coastal edge. Honey and butterscotch soften the palate, joined by a rich, viscous texture and subtle nutty depth. The peated malt remains measured rather than aggressive, building toward light woodfire smoke and a lingering sweet-savoury finish. Serve neat to keep the contrasts clear, or add a few drops of water to open the honeyed side.
Odd Society Commodore Canadian Single Malt Whisky 375 mL
Canadian Whisky
$46.99
British Columbia-grown malted barley gives the whisky a clear grain-led core and a distinctive peppery sweetness. Dark fruit and tobacco add depth, while more than three years in former bourbon barrels bring caramel, vanilla and a measured layer of oak. The palate is rounded and confident, balancing dried-fruit richness with gentle spice and toasted wood. A long, warming finish leaves toffee, dark chocolate and malt behind. Serve neat or add a few drops of water to open the sweeter notes.
Odd Society Maple Rye Whisky
Canadian Whisky
$46.99
Robust rye spice opens the palate, joined by cassia, dried apricot and toasted marshmallow. Nearly four years in former maple-syrup casks brings a silky sweetness without obscuring the grain, while a small amount of maple-smoked single malt softens the edges and adds a restrained smoky note. The texture is rich and warming, finishing with lingering maple, spice and gentle toast. Serve neat or with a few drops of water, allowing the rye and cask character to unfold gradually.
Odd Society Porcini & Candy Cap Single Malt Whisky
Canadian Whisky
$54.99
A mossy, meadow-like aroma opens with sweet earth and savoury maple. Porcini brings a deep woodland and umami character, while candy cap mushrooms contribute naturally maple-like sweetness. The rich palate adds toasted almond, butter, dark brown sugar and burnt caramel around the earthy core, creating an unusual balance of savoury and sweet. The finish is long, nutty and gently smoky. Serve neat and allow it time to open, or use in a restrained Sazerac-style drink where the mushroom character can remain distinct.
Odd Society London Dry Wallflower Gin
Canadian Gin
$59.99
Juniper leads with a firm, dry line, supported by bitter orange and the softer floral lift of rose and elderflower. A barley-based spirit gives the palate a rounded foundation, while rosehip, Saskatoon berry and coastal botanicals add restrained fruit and aromatic detail. The style is crisp and structured rather than perfumed, with pine, citrus and gentle flowers carrying into a clean finish. Serve with a light tonic and orange peel, or use in a dry Martini where the juniper remains central.
Odd Society Trí Stil Irish-Style Whiskey
Canadian Whisky
$60.99
Soft caramel and crisp apple lead a smooth, fruit-forward profile, followed by warm spice and a silky, buttery finish. Malted barley and unmalted wheat are triple distilled, then matured for four years in barrels previously used for the distillery’s Commodore and Prospector whiskies. The result is layered but easygoing, with gentle sweetness, fresh orchard fruit and enough spice to keep the palate lively. Serve neat, over a large cube or in a restrained Whiskey Sour.
Odd Society Prospector Canadian Rye Whisky
Canadian Whisky
$84.99
Brown sugar, dried prune, vanilla and oak lead a full-bodied Canadian rye with a clear grain-driven core. Made entirely from Northern British Columbia rye and matured in new, heavily charred American white-oak barrels, the palate balances rounded sweetness with light spice and ripe stone fruit. The texture is generous without feeling heavy, and oak remains well integrated through the middle. A crisp, dry finish recalls autumn leaves, leaving rye spice, vanilla and char behind.
Odd Society Commodore Canadian Single Malt Whisky
Canadian Whisky
$84.99
Peppery sweetness opens the nose, followed by dark fruit, tobacco and a measured layer of caramel and vanilla. The palate is smooth and rounded, with butterscotch, honey and dried fruit carried by toasted oak and a gentle thread of spice. Double distillation from British Columbia-grown malted barley gives the whisky a clear grain-led core, while more than three years in former bourbon barrels add depth. The finish is long and warming, with toffee and dark chocolate lingering.
Odd Society Robbie Burns 5 Year Old Canadian Whisky 750 mL
Canadian Whisky
$99.99
Caramelized honey and dry straw open the nose, with a bright line of peat smoke behind them. The palate is light but characterful, bringing together rich honey, chewy nut brittle and a mineral, briny note. Gentle spice adds definition through the middle without masking the whisky’s easy-sipping texture. Five years in once-used American white oak ex-rye barrels gives the spirit its balance of sweetness, savoury depth and smoke. The finish is clean and wood-fired. Serve neat or with a little water.
Odd Society Scottish Peat & Smoke Canadian Whisky 750 mL
Canadian Whisky
$109.99
Earthy hay and dried grass open the nose, followed by briny peat and a measured phenolic edge. The palate is sweet and viscous, with rich honey, butterscotch and chewy nut brittle set against mineral salinity and gentle spice. Scottish peated malt gives the whisky its savoury depth while the underlying grain remains rounded and composed. The finish is clean and lingering, with woodfire smoke and honey returning. Serve neat or add a few drops of water.
Odd Society Crème de Cassis
Canadian Liqueur
$31.99
Made from BC-grown blackcurrants, this French-style liqueur follows a closely held family recipe. The official profile presents a British Columbian interpretation of a French classic, using locally grown fruit and bottled at twenty-three percent alcohol. Blackcurrant and dark berry are the documented flavour references, presented through a crème de cassis preparation made with regional ingredients.
Odd Society Wallflower Gin
Canadian Gin
$57.99
This complex introvert is made from Odd Society’s 100% BC craft base spirit infused with west coast and international botanicals. The result is a rich, floral, aromatic gin, that is unique, light and refreshing.
