David Angus: A Founder of the Distillers Society Oakville & Speaker: Doris Anest, Brand Manager PMA Canada Ltd.
The Distillers Society of Oakville is an exciting new ‘Society’ in Oakville dedicated to the affordable pairing of pleasures. Imagine an evening of fun, good food and fine drink, featuring wine and spirits showcased by carefully selected distillers and vintners, spent with your friends, and you have described the first dinner of 2011 hosted by The Distillers Society.
It was a delightful evening spent with the Distillers Society’s members and guests, at the Harbour Banquet and Conference Centre in Oakville.
Doris Anest, Brand Manager for PMA Canada, a dynamic company which takes an innovative approach to the sale and marketing of their brands, lead the guests throughout the evening with her lively descriptions of The Distillers Society Signature Martini” (2 ½ oz. of SKYY Vodka, arguably the World’s purest vodka, served with vermouth soaked orange peel), Sokol Blosser “Evolution” White Wine, Sokol Blosser “Meditrina” Red Wine and the Amarula Cream Liqueur from South Africa. Delicious!

Was a wonderful dinner, both the food and drinks. I love the opportunity to try different tastes – things I wouldn’t normally try! The martini’s were awesome and the liquor was an additional treat. I’ll be looking for it in the LCBO for sure!
Looking forward to the next evening.
