Krupnik Spiced Honey Cream Liqueur It’s like your favourite Wh**ky Cream — Only using our best-selling Krupnik Spiced Honey Liqueur. Krupnik Cream is silky, decadent and unmistakably Wayward, with BC honey, creamy caramel and just enough spice.

- 37,225 kg of waste diverted: equal to a full day's garbage for 18,600 people
- 4,607 kWh of energy conserved: enough to charge a smartphone 389,000 times
- 100 hours of paid volunteer time: equivalent of 4+ full days and nights of continuous community support

September 15th is always a fantastic day at Wayward because it’s our GM and official Distillery Mom, Sara’s birthday!
Sara means the world to us. She looks after our team and works hard behind the scenes to make sure your favourite spirits reach our distillery, local restaurants, pubs, shops, markets, and even your doorstep. Sara truly is the heart of Wayward, and we couldn't do this without her.
Join us in raising a glass, preferably gin, because, well, it is Sara. Happy birthday! 🍸

We are a queer-owned and operated distillery and were the first in Canada to be officially accredited as Rainbow Registered by the Canadian Q***r Chamber of Commerce in our industry. We celebrate with Comox Valley Pride in June, August and every day. It’s baked into who we are as a company.
"We're a company that's engaged in the community, accepting of people around us, welcoming. One of the things I've learned is that this stuff isn't universal. But it is here." - Dave Brimacombe, Wayward Distillery
Happy Pride, Comox Valley!
