Dairy Distillery
Dairy Distillery, located in Almonte, Ontario, is a pioneering Canadian spirits producer renowned for its innovative use of milk permeate—a byproduct of dairy processing—to craft sustainable, award-winning spirits. Founded in 2018 by Omid McDonald, the distillery’s flagship product, Vodkow, is a smooth, gluten-free vodka that repurposes milk sugar into a high-quality spirit, reducing waste and supporting local dairy farmers. Their commitment to sustainability is evident in their carbon-neutral operations, achieved through energy-efficient production methods and lightweight packaging. Expanding their product line, Dairy Distillery introduced Vodkow Cream, Canada’s first lactose-free dairy cream liqueur, blending fresh Canadian cream with their signature vodka without added flavourings or colours. Visitors to their state-of-the-art facility can enjoy tours and tastings, experiencing firsthand the fusion of traditional distilling techniques with modern innovation.
