As the days get shorter, something magical emerges in the fading autumn daylight. Often called the golden hour, the time leading up to sunset brings deep, warm tones as the light softens, casting everything in a rich, amber glow and creating the perfect setting for relaxed, early evening gatherings. 
Entertaining habits may be shifting away from formal sit-down dinners in favour of more laid-back, aperitivo-inspired, grazing-style events designed for lingering conversation and connection. From Thanksgiving bites to beautifully styled seasonal cocktails and richer, spiced pours, this issue brings together elegant autumn hues, seasonal flavours and effortless hosting ideas, inviting you to embrace the golden hour and savour the warm glow of the season.

The best summers growing up were the ones when you could wander free: long, sun-soaked days without schedules or plans, a blank canvas filled with endless possibility. This issue is all about capturing that feeling and keeping things simple. Let go of expectations and embrace the kind of days that unfold effortlessly. Think sun-kissed afternoons, impromptu poolside gatherings, and effortless conversations that linger long after the sun sets. We’ve brought you easy, no-fuss recipes, quick-to-mix cocktails and relaxed entertaining ideas that let you spend less time prepping and more time living in the moment. Because in a time when everything feels overcomplicated, summers are best served simplified.

As spring comes into full bloom, everything feels a little lighter, with endless possibilities for creativity and reinvention. In this issue, we celebrate that sense of ease and curiosity with brighter flavours in the glass and fresher approaches in the kitchen. From reimagining wine to exploring light beer, unexpected cocktails and trend-driven bites, we embrace a spirit of play and discovery. This season, revisit old favourites with fresh eyes and let spring’s energy inspire you to sip, taste and truly lighten up, in every sense of the word.

Winter always arrives with a quiet kind of magic; a delicate shimmer of frost in the early morning sun or a sudden refreshing nip of cool, crisp air. It’s a season of contrast: dark, cold landscapes brightened by festive twinkling lights.

In this issue, we explore the beauty found at the edge of the season, where cold meets comfort and tradition meets evolution. From gifting and entertaining ideas to festive holiday recipes, cozy fireside drinks and more, we invite you to discover what makes winter truly unforgettable.

So, celebrate the season and remember to embrace the elegance of winter’s edge.

As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, a certain magic settles over British Columbia (BC). From sea to sky, fall invites us to reconnect with the land.

This issue is an ode to BC, featuring local businesses and seasonal cocktails, harvest inspired Thanksgiving feasts, and cozy and simple mid-week meals rooted in seasonal BC flavours. In the spirit of local, we raise a glass to two highly anticipated events: the 40th anniversary of the Bordeaux Release and the 20th anniversary of the Premium Spirit Release.

This fall, embrace the season, get into the True North spirit and celebrate everything that makes life in BC truly special.
