It began with an unlikely connection. When co-founder Jordan Ramey was looking to purchase a new home in 2012, he met realtor Ivan Cilic. Throughout the home-buying process, Ivan and Jordan connected over a common passion – small-batch brews and spirits. This shared passion sparked an idea: to bring together a group of people who are passionate about community, creativity and craft spirits. Still, something was missing. A few years later, Ivan’s brother, Marko joined the team. The three began to meet over locally brewed coffee, beer and craft spirits (and more than a few wings). The result: a vision for a distillery that would dedicate itself to providing Albertans with an authentic, hand-crafted product to pair with shared memories, celebrations, intimate gatherings and all those moments worth drinking to. Burwood is steeped in connection, passion and elevated through community. It is a space to connect, and to disconnect.
